I have a B.Tech/BBA/dual degree; which dMAT Subject Module should I actually select at registration?
Select the module that matches your target German program, not your undergraduate major. A B.Tech graduate applying to an MSc Finance program should pick Business, Commerce and Finance, not an engineering module. Dual-degree holders should choose based on the program they apply to.
Select the module that matches your target German program, not your undergraduate major. A B.Tech graduate applying to an MSc Finance program, for example, should select the Business, Commerce and Finance module rather than an engineering-specific one.
Choosing Your Subject Module by Degree and Target Program
| Your Indian Degree | Select Module |
|---|---|
| B.Tech/BE in CS/IT-titled branch | Computer Science |
| B.Tech/BE in Data Science/AI | Data Science |
| B.Tech./BE Mechanical | Mechanical Engineering |
| B.Tech/BE Electrical/Electronics/ECE | Electrical Engineering |
| B.Sc. Physics | Physics |
| B.Sc. Chemistry | Chemistry |
| B.Com/M.Com/CA/BBA/MBA/PGDM | Business, Commerce & Finance |
| B.Sc./BA/MA Economics | Economics |
| B.Arch (applying to management programs) | Business, Commerce & Finance |
Handling Dual Degrees and Borderline Cases
Dual-degree holders should base their selection on the program they are applying to rather than on either of their two original degrees. For dual-degree holders whose target program straddles two fields, confirm directly with your target German university's admissions office which module they expect to see on your certificate before you register.
My Advice
If your situation does not cleanly match this table, for example if you are a B.Tech graduate targeting a program that blends engineering and business, email your target university's admissions office directly and ask which module they expect to see on your certificate. Do not rely on this table alone for genuinely borderline cases.
