Overview Deadlines

Cognitive Systems programs in Germany offer international students an interdisciplinary education at the crossroads of artificial intelligence, neuroscience, psychology, and computer science, equipping them to understand and design systems that mirror or complement human perception, learning, and decision-making. These English-taught degrees cover areas such as machine learning, speech and image recognition, robotics, and cognitive modeling, while also integrating insights from human cognition and behavior. Students gain both theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience through projects, research labs, and collaborations with leading institutions like the Max Planck Institutes and Germany’s thriving AI ecosystem, spanning autonomous driving, natural language processing, and human–machine interaction.

Numerus Clausus (Admission Restriction)

For degree courses with a numerus clausus, part of the study places are allocated according to the grade point average (GPA) of the previous degree. Selection is generally based on how many applicants apply for a place. The higher the grade, the more difficult it is to get onto the course. The German grading system ranges from 1.0 (very good) to 6.0 (unsatisfactory).
