Course description

The Master's degree program in Chemistry at TU Dortmund University empowers students to deepen their knowledge and practical skills, aligning with the latest research trends. This program prepares students to work independently in fields such as research, development, production, or analytics. Instead of mandatory courses, the program offers framework requirements, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of inorganic, organic, physical/theoretical, technical, and analytical chemistry. This structure also allows students to choose their own specialization. Students engage in a research internship within their chosen specialization, culminating in a Master's thesis that showcases their ability to work independently and scientifically. A unique aspect of studying at TU Dortmund University is the close collaboration with the Faculty of Biological and Chemical Engineering, the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Physiology, and the Leibniz Institute for Analytical Sciences. The curriculum includes courses in analytical chemistry, technical chemistry, bioorganic and medicinal chemistry, molecular modeling, and macromolecular chemistry. The program also supports studying abroad for one or two semesters, with comparable achievements from international institutions easily credited to the Master's program. This flexibility ensures that students can gain diverse experiences and broaden their academic horizons.

Qualification Requirements

The Master’s degree program Chemistry is based on the corresponding Bachelor’s degree program. Therefore, not only comprehensive theoretical training from the Bachelor’s degree program is required, but also a comparable scope of laboratory courses in classical chemistry. Therefore, admission to the Master’s degree program is only possible if the Bachelor’s degree program is comparable to the B.Sc. degree program Chemistry at TU Dortmund University. An application for admission must be submitted to verify the equivalence. The degree program Chemical Biology at TU Dortmund University is considered comparable. A German grade of at least 3.2 is required for admission to the Master’s degree program.
