Technology and Application of Inorganic Engineering Materials Master

This page serves as an overview of important information about the Master's programme Technology and Application of Inorganic Engineering Materials. The first part deals with the abundance of compulsory modules in the semesters and initial information on elective modules. A precise breakdown and sorting as well as tips and tricks can be found further down. The tips are purely from the point of view of the regulations. Which modules are nice to take or have easy exams is completely disregarded here. In terms of planning, it also makes sense to read up on all semesters first and then make decisions.
