Annotation
Chemistry plays an indispensable role in dealing with current problems such as climate change, pollution or the use of resources. At the same time, basic innovations in chemistry are often the prerequisite for innovations in other technologies, for example in the context of digitisation, renewable energies, electronics or mobility. In the extra-occupational English-language Master Sustainable Chemistry (M.Sc.), students learn how chemistry can and must contribute to sustainable development issues. The degree program is unique worldwide with its interdisciplinary focus on sustainability. The study content ranges from the level of the molecule to global material flows, sustainability assessments and new business models for chemical products. The Master is aimed at professionals with an academic education in Chemistry, Chemical, Biotechnological or Environmental Engineering, Pharmacy, Biochemistry or similar subjects, as well as one year of relevant work experience.
Admission requirements
University degree in Chemistry, Biotechnology or Environmental Engineering, Pharmacy, Biochemistry or related fields (B.Sc. or M.Sc.) \; at least one year of relevant professional experience \; advanced English (e.g. TOEFL internet-based with at least 83 points)
