    with basic skills that match our teaching concept and with the corresponding prospects
    of success.

    • English language skills:


    The programme is conducted in English, therefore English language skills must be
    certified at language level B 2 of the Common European Framework of Reference for
    Languages of the Council of Europe. With regard to proof of this, the regulations in

    for Languages must be proven during the course of studies and can be acquired while

    Information on the admission test:


    • The test is intended to prove the ability to work scientifically and therefore to deter-
    mine whether the special qualitative requirements for the successful completion of the
    Master's programme in International Tourism Development are met.

    • Candidates who meet the formal criteria for admission must be invited to the selection
    procedure.
    • The admissions procedure consists of a 60-minute written test, which can also be held
    online if necessary, and an interview of max. 20 minutes, which can also be conducted
    virtually if necessary. The entire admission procedure is carried out by two lecturer
    from the Deggendorf Institute of Technology, at least one of whom is involved for the
    Master's programme in International Tourism Development.

    • The admission procedure takes place in presence or online:

    o On-site test in Pfarrkirchen

    The admission test at the European Campus Rottal-Inn is free of charge and takes
    place at the end of the application period. Applicants will be informed about the
    specific date and time. Applicants who wish to take the test in presence have to
    register by sending an email the admission team (admission-team-itd@th-
    deg.de). Some foreign nationals are required to produce a visa upon entering Ger-
    many. Please contact the German consulate if this applies to you. The Deggendorf
    Institute of Technology (DIT) does not provide a provisional letter of admission for
    visa or any other purposes. The university does not assist students or applicants
    with their visa and does not interfere in any processes.

    Be sure to bring a valid, government issued photo ID, such as a passport to the
    admission test.

    o Online-Test

    If you are unable to take the test in person at our European Campus Rottal-Inn,
    an online test is available at your convenience. The online test will be proctored
    by an external service provider and as such will incur a fee of 26 USD. Payment
    has to be made with an internationally accepted credit card. In order to take the
    online test, you must register with ProctorU. You mustn't register with DIT for the
    online test.
    ProctorU is a live online proctoring service that allows you to take your exam from
    the comfort of your home. ProctorU provides a platform with multi-factor identity
    verification and end-to-end video recording with AI based behavior flagging. Test-
    takers are guided through the entire process by a live proctor who can also assist
    with technical issues. ProctorU is available 24/7; however, you will need to sched-
    ule your proctoring session at least 72 hours in advance to avoid any additional
    on-demand scheduling fees.

    In order to use ProctorU, you will need a high-speed internet connection, a


    webcam (internal or external), a windows or apple Operating System, and a gov-
    ernment issued photo id.

    At the scheduled day and time of your test, you must login to ProctorU. You will
    be guided through the next necessary steps and the proctor will unlock the actual
    admission test. It is crucial that you have your username and password (provided
    via-mail) at hand.

    Once you have started the test, you will have 60 minutes to complete it. The
    proctor is unable to pause the clock for any reason. This is why we highly recom-
    mend that you ensure that your connection is stable for the duration of the online
    admission test.

    • The purpose of the written examination is to recognise and assess strategic and inter-
    national contexts and problems and to be able to present and discuss possible solu-
    tions. The main focus is on the basics of tourism, marketing and studying in Germany.
    The examination is based on open and multiple-choice questions. The written exami-
    nation is considered "passed" if at least 30 of the 60 maximum points to be awarded
    are achieved.
    • Candidates who have passed the written test "with success" will be invited to the vir-
    tual interview. A total of 40 points will be awarded. A minimum of 20 points must be
    achieved for successful completion of the interview.

    o Expectations of the Master’s programme (max. 5 points)

    o Relation tot he future professions (max. 5 points)


    The course-specific eligibility is proven when the written test and the interview have
    been passed "with success".
    • The procedure for determining suitability for a specific degree programme is carried
    out once a year in the winter semester for the following summer semester. Applications
    for admission to the procedure, together with the application documents, must be
    submitted to the Deggendorf Institute of Technology in the online application proce-
    dure by the end of the application period for the following summer semester (cut-off
    deadline).
    • Applicants who have not provided proof of their course-specific eligibility can re-regis-
    ter for the test once more on the date of the following year. In justified exceptional
    cases, it is possible to register for the test at a later date. It is not possible to retake
    the test at a later date.

    • Minutes must be taken of the interview, showing in particular the date and place of
    the examination, the names of the candidates, the subjects to be examined as well as
    the principles for the assessment of individual performances and the determination of
    the results by the members of the examination committee.

    • The examination board may waive participation in the interview if the applicant demon-
    strates above-average knowledge in the degrees pursuant to section 3, paragraph 1,
    no. 1. Degrees with a grade of 2.0 or better are deemed to be above average.
