After the second year, students can apply for the double degree track if they meet the requirements. Language of instrucation in the first two years is German.

Web­source

The TH Lübeck has produced a number of videos to present its study programs. Most of them are in German, and not all of them have English subtitles. But if you already speak German and want to get an insight, there are two playlists on YouTube that we like to recommend to you:

• Study programs, in some cases also explained in more detail, and
• Study program of the month, a more recent video series that mainly features students talking about their studies.
