Nature-Inspired Materials, B.Sc.

Shaping materials of the future

Your entry into the world of modern, sustainable materials: The Bachelor's study programme Nature-Inspired Materials combines chemistry, materials science and biology to prepare students for the development of materials inspired by or derived directly from nature.

One study programme, three specializations - choose your path!

After your first semester where you learn all the necessary bacis you can specialize in one of three exciting areas:

Biomaterials specialization: focus on the interfaces between materials and biological systems, bioderived materials and nature-inspired innovations.

Material Technology specialization: focus on the technical development and production of new materials.

Management specialization: combination of materials science and management for leadership roles.

Here you can take a look at the exemplary study programmes. 
 

What's special about this study programme?

• Interdisciplinary approaches: Linking chemistry, biology and materials science.
• Innovative content: Explore how biological principles can be used to create new materials.
• Practical relevance: A practical semester or semester abroad and the Bachelor's thesis combine theory with real-life applications.
• Intercultural competence: Studying in English helps you to learn how to communicate and collaborate in international teams.
   

Career prospects

Graduates have interdisciplinary skills that qualify them for many industries, including:

• Development and analysis of innovative materials
