Opting for a Master’s double degree is a game-changing decision for students aiming to maximise their educational and career potential. With this path, you will earn two distinct degrees from two institutions, within the same time frame as a single degree. This not only enhances your academic credentials but also immerses you in diverse cultural and professional environments. A double degree broadens your expertise by combining two complementary fields, offering unique insights that can set you apart in the competitive job market. Employers value candidates with international exposure, adaptability, and interdisciplinary skills, all of which a double degree provides. Additionally, the networks you build—academic mentors, peers, and industry professionals—span multiple institutions and regions, amplifying your global connections. If you’re eager to challenge yourself, grow holistically, and stand out as a well-rounded professional, a double Master’s degree is your gateway to endless opportunities!

Accommodation is available through the Student Services organisation (“Studierendenwerk“) or on the private market. Rooms in student accommodation cost approx. 250–480 EUR per month. As Tübingen is a very attractive place to live, private accommodation is more expensive and can take some effort to find. To make sure you find a suitable place to live, you should start looking as early as possible.
We recommend you apply for student accommodation through the “Studierendenwerk” at the same time that you apply for admission to the Master's programme (please see: https://www.my-stuwe.de/en/housing/halls-of-residence-tuebingen/ and https://www.my-stuwe.de/en/housing/faqs/) and send in a copy of your notification of admission as soon as you have received it (your application won’t be finally processed before the “Studierendenwerk” has received proof of your admission).
