Master Degrees
The procedure for applying for a master's degree, the periods of application and the qualifications needed are different for each program. The same goes for documents required for the applications with some similarities in terms of id, university diploma recognition, language certificates or related working experience. There is always an interview process by the committee of the program to ascertain the academic experience, performance, and interests of the candidates.
If you are interested in a particular university department, you can first visit their website to check the master provided and their entry requirements and then, if needed, contact the department to learn more about how to apply. Tuition fees will probably be between €1,500 and €4,500 per year. But there is always the option of applying for a scholarship.
