Applied Polymer Science M.Sc.

Polymers are much more than plastic!

Are you enthusiastic about chemistry and, above all, the diverse applications of polymer materials and plastics? Then the Master's degree programme "Applied Polymer Science" (M.Sc.) is ideal for you. The degree programme is offered by the Faculty of Chemistry and Biotechnology at FH Aachen, which is one of the strongest research universities of applied sciences in Germany. As part of this Master's degree programme, you will be taught by professors - including from the Institute of Applied Polymer Chemistry (IAP) - as well as lecturers from industry. This ensures a practical and application-oriented education that prepares you for the needs of the labour market.

The Applied Polymer Science degree programme deals with polymeric materials that are used in all areas of life. Polymer materials will continue to play an increasingly important role in the future:

  • Lightweight construction materials made from high-performance polymer materials are important for aviation
  • Polymer dispersions can be found in varnishes, paints and coatings for paper or other surfaces
  • plastic materials are used in medicine, e.g. as flexible tubes; a lot of research is also being carried out into drug delivery systems to release medicines more efficiently
  • We encounter packaging materials every day: sustainable developments are needed here in particular to avoid plastic waste
  • the use of renewable raw materials and biopolymers is becoming increasingly important in order to make innovations sustainable

All of these aspects are covered in our degree programme - and these are just a few examples: Research and development as well as applications of polymers are very diverse. This is why graduates from this field will continue to be urgently needed and sought after in the future.

So if you are interested in studying polymer science and want to be part of innovative developments with good job prospects in the future, the Master's degree programme "Applied Polymer Science" at FH Aachen is an excellent choice. We offer you a sound education in a forward-looking field of work and research. Polymers are much more than just plastic - find out for yourself!
