The course is structured as follows:
- Compulsory courses (lectures, tutorials, laboratory courses
- In the first half of the course, students learn the basics of Materials Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Programming.
- The second half of the course focuses on in-depth materials science content. In addition to Sustainable Materials and Characterisation Methods of Materials Science, topics such as Functional Properties of Solids and Construction Materials are covered.
- Three Compulsory Elective Areas (CEA) distributed throughout the degree program offer great scope for individual orientation:
- Materials Science CEA: e.g. electrical engineering or machine learning in materials science.
- Technical and scientific CEA e.g. bionics, organic chemistry, robotics, optoelectronics, aerodynamics.
- Non-technical CEA (Studium Generale): e.g. economics, business administration, philosophy of technology, project management, patent law.
- In your Bachelor's thesis, you will spend three months working on a project in one of our research groups.
- After your Bachelor's degree, you can specialize in the M.Sc. Materials Science or one of our international double degree programs .
