• This elite Master’s degree programme is a unique combination of chemical and biological engineering with materials science and engineering.
• By providing students with a cutting edge education, MAP is training the next generation of engineers with the skills necessary to produce innovative materials in the most efficient and sustainable way.
• MAP is built around the following four focal subjects: Advanced Processes, Biomaterials and Bioprocessing, Computational Materials Science and Process Simulation, Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology, with students specializing in two out of four from the second semester onwards.
• The intensive study of these topics together with the associated project work as well as practical applications, an industrial internship and soft skills provide students with broad career opportunities in industry as well as in academia.
• MAP is one of the cutting-edge programmes supported by the Bavarian Elite Network.
• Advanced Materials and Processes (MAP) is a combination of Materials Science and Engineering with Chemical and Biological Engineering.
• These disciplines play a key role in the development of novel technologies – without the development of new materials, a great range of key inventions from digital computers or jet engines to customized medical implants would not have been possible.
• Novel materials with new functionalities or improved properties, however, require specifically designed, economically and environmentally sustainable production processes – which might themselves depend on the development of new catalyst materials.
• This intimate connection between processes and materials is of key importance for advances and innovations in virtually any field of technology.
• Chemical and Biological Engineering and Materials Science and Engineering are thus highly intertwined fields, which are, however, treated as separate subjects in traditional education.
• MAP is an English-taught interdisciplinary Master’s Programme and provides a unique curriculum for the next generation of engineers.
• Students follow an individually tailored curriculum to learn in small groups the fundamentals of Chemical and Biological Engineering and/or Materials science and Engineering, and four focal subjects allow the students to further deepen their knowledge in key technological areas.

•Winter semester starts in October, International students must plan their visa applications accordingly.
