Sustainable Chemistry & Energy, Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.)

To switch to green energy, we need new solutions for the storage of renewable energy in the form of batteries or other chemical energy carriers such as hydrogen, and to maintain our standard of living, we need environmentally friendly and efficient packaging and building materials, fertilisers, and medicines, etc. Chemistry as the science of substances and substance transformation is tailor-made to find highly innovative solutions in this regrd. Based on a broad chemical background knowledge, the bachelor's degree programme in "Sustainable Chemistry & Energy" teaches approaches to solutions for a sustainable and innovative future. These includes renewable chemical energy storage, the conversion of classic large-scale processes to "green" CO₂ -neutral alternatives, the recycling of raw materials, and many other exciting topics.
