Chemical Engineering
M.Sc.
Overview
The master's program in Chemical Engineering is an interdisciplinary program run by the Departments of Chemistry and of Mechanical Engineering. A Master's in Chemical Engineering is a professional qualification that is much sought after in industry. It combines the application-based procedures of engineering with the perspective of the natural sciences, which is oriented more towards fundamentals. In the context of the master's program you can decide whether to specialize in chemical process engineering, biotechnology, or catalysis and reaction engineering.
Which further expertise and skills will I acquire?
Graduates possess advanced knowledge of the natural sciences and of engineering. You can therefore independently analyze and deal with interdisciplinary questions on the interfaces between disciplines. Your choice of specialties determines which further qualifications you acquire during the course of the program.
Which professional opportunities can I take up with this qualification?
For graduates of the master's program in Chemical Engineering, diverse opportunities arise: in industry, at research institutes or institutions of higher education, and also in public services.
Structure
The master's program in Chemical Engineering is international and interdisciplinary in outlook. The degree is therefore accompanied by a foreign exchange program.
The substantial weighting given to the research internship further characterizes the program, which paves the way to working in an independent, scientific, and experimental manner.
You can significantly determine the content of the master's program through your choice of specialization. Areas on offer range from process engineering to aspects of heterogeneous catalysis and reaction engineering.
The program concludes with the master’s thesis in the forth semester.

Qualifications
Selection takes place through an aptitude assessment procedure. Aptitude assessment is a two-part procedure after the submission of an official application to a program. In this procedure, the TUM school or department determines whether you meet the specific requirements for its master’s degree program.
In the initial stages, the grades you obtained during your bachelor's program, as well as your written documents, will be evaluated using a point system. Depending on the amount of points accumulated, applicants are either immediately admitted, rejected or invited to an admissions interview.
