Chemical Engineering (graduate)

The advanced Chemical Engineering program builds on knowledge gained in an undergraduate degree and, where applicable, professional experience. Students typically choose a specialization—e.g., solid-state chemistry/physics or organic and biomimetic materials—while some master’s programs cover the full breadth of chemical engineering.

The program culminates in a second professionally qualifying university degree.

Chemical Engineering is also offered in dual-study and part-time formats.

Compulsory modules, e.g.:

• Bioprocess Engineering/Biopolymers
• Solid-State Chemistry/Solid-State Analysis
• Microscopy/Micro-area Analysis
• Multiphase and Interfacial Thermodynamics
• Organic Chemistry based on renewable raw materials

Elective modules, e.g.:

• Waste Management/Environmental Economics
• CAD and GIS systems
• Electron-beam and Battery Technology
• Electrical Engineering/Automation Systems
• Fundamentals of Measurement and Computerized Metrology
• Mathematical Modeling and Optimization
• Polymer Chemistry/Polymeric Materials
• Radiochemistry
• Structured Inorganic and Biomaterials
• Process Development, Project Management, and Technology of Inorganic Processes
• Water Management

Practical study components:

Depending on the university: internships, practice-integrated modules, practical semesters (e.g., in industry), and study-abroad terms.
