New Graduate Preapplication - Thesis-Based MSc in Computer Science

To pre-apply for the course-based MSc program click here.

To resume a saved preapplication click here.

Please read the instructions carefully. If you have not done so earlier you may want to check first our graduate admissions page. This form does not replace an official application; you must also apply through the Admissions Office. However, please note that the Admissions Office will not process any application without the departmental pre-approval (which is based on this pre-application).

Pre-applications will be evaluated on a rolling basis and admission will be offered to the successful applicants at the earliest opportunity subject to the deadlines imposed to the official application by the Admissions Office.

This form will allow us to provide a preliminary assessment of your capability to enter our programme; while such an assessment is not official, a positive answer almost always implies a positive answer to an official application.

Once completed, you can submit the form at once. However, you can also save your information and continue at a later time by clicking on the Save Profile button. If you do so, you will be asked to input some basic information, such as your name, email and password so that we can verify your identity when logging back in.

Fields in purple are compulsory. Research and financial data are very important for the assessment of your application. Make sure you fill in as much of the rest of the form as possible; incomplete data may lead to an incorrect assessment of your application, and often to no assessment at all. Note that we do not provide any feedback abut the completeness of your pre-application; you will simply not hear from us if we do not have enough data for an assessment.

    It is to your advantage to provide a statement of interest outlining your research interests and abilities.

We are not interested in why you chose our university or indeed any other soft information. We would like to see what are your research interests and what can you bring to the research team of your said future supervisor.
