MS Applied Geosciences

The Master's degree programme "Applied Geosciences" has its emphasis on the applied aspects of geosciences, with a geoscientific focus on environmental research. Building on a suitable bachelor's program, the master's program imparts knowledge, skills and competencies, especially in the fields of hydrogeology, environmental geochemistry, engineering geology, geothermal energy, applied mineralogy and atmospheric aerosol, in order to enable graduates to independently and responsibly work on issues related to the future topics of water, energy and environment. At the beginning of the Master's program, students choose one of two specializations ("Applied Geology" or "Environmental Geosciences"). Each of the specializations consists of a specially adapted compulsory or optional module.
