Chemistry
Study Program
The four-semester master study programme offers in-depth
scientific education with specific attention to main research
topics in chemistry, such as inorganic chemistry, organic
chemistry, physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, materials
chemistry, and macromolecular chemistry. A designation of the
diploma of the master of chemistry to the specializations
„Materials and Interfaces“, „Light and Matter“ or „Molecular
Sciences“ is possible.
The consecutive master study programme is designed to qualify
students for a job in a chemistry oriented field or to begin in
a doctoral program in chemistry. In particular, students are
introduced to modern theoretical and experimental developments
in the field of study in its entire breadth. They learn to
develop strategies for solving complex issues and to act with
scientific responsibility. Moreover, the offer of a variable
specialization enables the students to put together an
individual educational profile in the course of the study
programme.
During the first semester, advanced theoretical and methodical skills in the core subjects and in two application-oriented fields of study are imparted. In these courses, perspectives for specialization in the respective subject are highlighted and the basis for academic development is provided. From the second semester onward, deepening of knowledge in elective modules takes place. In the fourth semester, the master‘s thesis is written in the subject of specialization.
Two elective courses from the core subjects, i.e. inorganic, organic and physical chemistry, and from application-oriented subjects, i.e. analytical, materials and macromolecular chemistry, can be chosen.

Study organization
Examination regulations/degree plan/module
manuals/internship rules
Examination regulations (FPOs) specify the basic structures of
a degree program (e.g. admission requirements and contents to
be studied). Students are automatically subject to the current
version of their FPO when they matriculate for their first
subject-related semester. This means that even if the FPO
changes during their studies, the original version according to
which they matriculated will remain valid (provided that the
FPO does not expire).
The respective degree plan is the recommended example progress
of the studies in individual subjects and is part of a FPO.
Supplementary provisions and details for any module to be
studied can be found in the module manually (e.g. requirements
for taking a written test or content-related information on the
modules/events, ...).
The internship rules define the conditions under which the
required or optional internships must be completed.
We recommend at least looking at the study schedule for your
degree program before the lecture time starts, to ensure that
you know which modules are intended for the start of your
studies.
