Overview

The joint Materials Science program at Ludwig-Maximilians-University (LMU) Munich covers fundamentals of Materials(structure and dynamics of condensed matter, and chemical, mechanical and physical properties of materials).

MaMaSELF+ also proposes focus on energy related applications(energy conversion, storage and efficiency, nanomaterials, geomaterials, smart materials). One specific aim of the Mamaself program is to explain the application of "Large scale facilities" for the characterisation and development of materials.

The Master course’s structure consists in 3 semesters of classes plus a 4thsemester dedicated to a Master-thesis / internship in highly recognized European Universities in France, Germany, Italy and Poland.

After completion of the programme students will

Demonstrate solid knowledge and skills allowing them to solve problems related to materials and their technological applications or processes
Be autonomous, able to manage research or industrial projects
Be able to communicate in an effective manner, in English in addition to their mother tongue
Demonstrate rigour, openness, critical thinking and a sense of ethics in work.
