71 Natural Sciences Degree Programs in Germany

The Atmospheric Science study program is a study of physics with a special focus on the atmosphere. Our program focuses on research-oriented learning and offers individual specializations. Atmospheric Science is a degree program with fascinating topics: climate, environment, and weather or computer simulations, satellites, physical theory.

The study of soft matter and soft materials requires a comprehensive understanding of physics and chemistry in this field. The goal of the Master's program Soft Matter and Materials is to provide technical knowledge and conceptual competence related to the production of building blocks (e.g. polymers, supramolecular tectons, colloids) and the structure-dynamics-property relationships of soft matter and materials. Functional concepts will be learned based on general synthetic components, in addition to biologically-relevant components.

International Material Flow Management (IMAT) is an interdisciplinary master's degree program that offers two degrees: IMAT Master of Science (M. Sc.) and IMAT Master of Engineering (M. Eng.). This technology- and business-heavy environmental, science, and engineering program offer cutting-edge knowledge through an advanced portfolio of subjects that the 21st-century business leaders must possess.

Are you interested in life sciences and their applications in biomedicine? Would you like to study for an English-taught bachelor’s degree in Germany? The Biomedical Sciences (B.Sc.) course covers the fundamentals of molecular biology, biochemistry, immunology and bioanalytics. The six-semester program concludes with the completion of a bachelor’s thesis at a company or research institute.

The Master's degree program 'Mathematics and Computer Science' is unique in Germany as it offers students the opportunity to study this important field with equal weighting given to each discipline.

The Master's degree in "Lightweight Engineering & Composites" is intended for engineers and graduates of mathematics and natural sciences with professional experience, who would like to gain a qualification in the area of composites via the professional development route. The particular focus of the study program is on both carbon fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRP, colloquially known as "carbon") and glass fiber-reinforced plastics (GFRP).

The AMASE Master's is an international Master's program in Materials Science and Engineering. You study at two out of four European universities from different countries (Germany, France, Spain, Sweden). You also learn two out of the four available languages (German, French, Spanish, and English).

Welcome to the futuristic world of quantum computing, the next great evolutionary leap in computer technology. As one of the first universities in Germany, DIT offers you a Master's degree in Quantum Computing. Building on your knowledge in computer science, physics or engineering, you will learn about the modern technology of quantum computing in this degree programme.

The HFA doctoral students are given the opportunity to benefit from the wealth of experience and outstanding expertise of their supervisor while building up a research network. It is possible to pursue a Ph.D. in various STEM-related subjects according to your previous academic background, such as engineering, informatics, natural sciences/mathematics, and psychology/medicine. Ph.D. students of the Hector Fellow Academy are employed as research assistants for a period of three years. The salary corresponds to the internal regulations at the University of the respective Hector Fellow.

The Graduate School’s support concept for doctoral students is modelled on the well-established structure developed in the doctoral programme ‘Manuscript Cultures’, which started with the SFB 950 ‘Manuscript Cultures in Asia, Africa and Europe’ in 2011.

The most pressing problems of the 21st century include environmental degradation such as climate change, loss of biodiversity, soil degradation, and air pollution, and increasing resource scarcity urging for a more sustainable use of Earth’s resources. The BSc program Earth Sciences and Sustainable Management of Environmental Resources (ESSMER) is an interdisciplinary science major with a strong focus on phenomena and processes occurring at the Earth’s surface. Our students develop a holistic understanding of the system Earth, anthropogenic interaction with its land, atmosphere, oceans and biosphere, and management of environmental resources, including water, soils, biological and energy resources, and minerals. The ESSMER program is based on a solid foundation in science disciplines and uses key methodological tools and concepts from Earth Sciences and data management combined with the concepts of sustainability and resource management.

Physics has shaped our view of the universe and the world around us by exploring the basic concepts of space, time, and matter. Physics not only lays the foundation for all other natural sciences and many engineering disciplines but is also a fundamental part of modern technology. At the same time, simulations and experiments in many areas of research and especially in physics generate vast amounts of data. To fully use this data and extract meaningful insights, advanced methods of data science including machine learning are essential. These tools have countless further applications in almost all aspects of daily life.

Analytical science is becoming increasingly significant. Fast and precise analytical methods are more important than ever in research, quality control, and production monitoring. It is therefore all the more astonishing that so few study programs in Europe offer this as a major. At Hochschule Fresenius in Idstein, you can study Bioanalytical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Analysis (M.Sc.) full-time or part-time.
