Short overview: You can apply for admission to the Master’s programme if you have successfully completed a Bachelor’s degree (at least six semesters) in chemistry and obtained 180 credits. Alternatively, undergraduates can apply as soon as they have obtained at least 150 credits. If the subject of the Bachelor’s degree was not chemistry, the equivalence will be checked by our selection committee. International applicants have to submit proof of sufficient knowledge of English or German. If there are twice as many applicants as there are spaces, a selection interview will take place.
