New Study Regulations
You are on our information sites for current students. The information on these pages still refers to the 2015 study regulations, which currently apply to most of our students.
Information on the 2024 study regulations, which will apply from 1 June 2024 and are therefore binding for new students from the winter term 24/25 on, are presented on our . sites for prospective students
Your Study Plan
The M.Sc. Materials Science focuses on functional materials such as energy materials, magnetic materials, or electronic materials and their synthesis and characterization. Courses on theoretical materials science include quantum mechanics, non-equilibrium thermodynamics, and continuum mechanics.
There is a mandatory elective domain “Quantum Mechanics/Micromechanics” with a choice between the modules “Quantum Mechanics for Materials Science” and “Micromechanics for Materials Science.” The module not elected in this domain becomes part of the domain “Elective Courses Materials Science.”
A recognised industrial internship (“Praktikum”) of a minimum of six weeks is required and must be completed at the latest at the time of starting the Master’s Thesis.
