Polymer Materials Science Master's study programme

Entry requirements

Applicants for the MSc Polymer Materials Science must hold a bachelor‘s degree (minimum 180 ECTS (= credit points (CP)) or equivalent in Chemistry, Physics, or Engineering with focus on polymer technology and, prove language proficiency in English at level B2 (according to the CEFR) via German Abitur or by means of an internationally recognised test result such as TOEFL, IELTS, Cambridge Certificate or UNIcert II. Furthermore, extensive technical knowledge in chemistry, physics, mathematics and polymer technology and processing is strongly recommended and will be considered in the selection procedure. If the study programme is subject to admission restrictions and the number of applications exceeds the number of available study places, the available study places are allocated according to the Study Place Allocation Regulations of the Federal State of Saxony-Anhalt (Studienplatzvergabeverordnung Sachsen-Anhalt) and the regulations governing the selection procedure for the international master's degree programme Polymer Materials Science (selection regulations, i.e. Auswahlordnung) in the currently valid version. In this process, 70% of all study places are awarded to international applicants who do not have the same status as German applicants. This chapter consists of excerpts roughly translated into English. Only the study and examination regulations are legally binding.
