MA/MS in Chemical Engineering

Graduates of this master of science find jobs in large industrial concerns, medium-sized and small companies and the civil service. Because the training is broad, the career paths reach into many neighbouring sectors and are not tied to the chemical industry alone. The content centres on how substances are transformed chemically, on the technical processes and plants involved, and on mathematical modelling of such processes. Reaction technology for storing and converting energy is a further theme. The first semester includes reaction engineering, thermal process engineering and electives, with mechanical process engineering and catalysis in the plan as well. The second semester brings an advanced laboratory and a research placement, and the thesis fills the final semester. The degree takes four semesters and 120 credit points, is taught in English as a full-time course, and can be started in either the summer or the winter term. Admission is open without a restriction on places. Students may spend one or two terms abroad through exchange schemes.
