Efficient development of new materials requires the use of complementary analysis methods in order to understand the relationships between the manufacturing process, the structure of the material and the material properties and to be able to specifically adjust the properties of materials and components in a production process. Materials analysis therefore plays a central role not only in research and development, but also in production. The Advanced Materials Analysis degree programme provides in-depth insights into important techniques for analysing the structure and properties of materials for electronics and optoelectronics, batteries and other functional materials, hard materials, shape memory alloys and construction materials such as steels or titanium alloys. 

Based on a Bachelor's degree in materials science, physics or chemistry, students are prepared for a career in industry as well as in science and research. The strongly methodical nature of the programme opens up access to a very diverse range of industries, from the semiconductor industry to mechanical engineering and metallurgy. In addition, graduates can pursue a career in academic research or in research centres.

Please note that this is an English-language Master's degree programme. Applications can be submitted online via the applicant portal and are possible from 1 January to 15 April.
