For Incomings: Study Abroad at Ulm University

Master Courses Chemistry

In the Chemistry Master's course of studies nearly all of the courses are taught in English.

Research-oriented Lab Courses ("project works") can be carried out at any time after consultation and determination with a supervising university teacher of the corresponding institute. The scope of a project includes 5 weeks of full-time work (180 h). It concludes with a written elaboration as well as a talk in the institute seminar and is rewarded with 9 credit points. If necessary, a grading can be made, by default, however, project works are not graded. The aim of the project work is an independent participation in the current research and development of current topics using modern experimental methods.

Lab Courses

Places in lab courses, in which students conduct their own experiments, are limited. Priority is given to students who are enrolled in full-degree studies at Ulm University. You may list lab courses on your Learning Agreements, but you should be prepared that you may not get a place in one of those courses.

Lab Safety

Students usually have to attend a safety briefing prior to the start of a lab course. In case there should be serious doubts that a student will be able to respond to instructions due to poor linguistic competence and/or academic preparation, participation in the lab may be denied in order to avoid hazards.

Please note:
  • In order to attend Master-level courses, students should have successfully completed at least 3 years of study (approx. 180 ECTS) in the field of study of the Erasmus agreement.
  • All students must meet the language and academic requirements of any given course.
  • Exceptions may be granted to students in their final Bachelor year, if the home university confirms that this mobility window is offered explicitly for students to take Master courses.
