Overview

You will receive a sound, high-quality scientific education that equips you with particular competence in the field of material sciences whilst building equally solid specialist foundations in chemistry. As a graduate you will have a qualification profile that is relevant to modern material sciences research. And if you wish to deepen your scientific knowledge and skills, you will be suitably qualified to take up doctoral studies in chemistry or physics.

Career prospects

In this Nanoscience study programme from University of Konstanz, you will acquire knowledge and skills required for a career in modern material sciences research. A large variety of career possibilities open up in industry and the world of science.

Typical work areas include:

production of instruments in measurement and sensor technology
production of optical or medical devices
electronics industry (e.g. production of microchips)
ceramic and chemical industry
metal engineering and foundries
material development (synthetics, biomaterials etc.)
quality control, materials testing institutes

For a senior position in research and development a doctorate is usually required. Above-average students can take the Fast Track option with direct admission to doctoral studies, thus shortening the overall study period.
