MSc Science and Technology of Materials (STM) at Technical University of Munich

Innovative applications and fields of activity in science, technology and medicine, including their industrial use, demand new types of materials whose range of performance clearly differs from previous material concepts. The program is interdisciplinary and focuses on the production, characterisation and knowledge-based further development of structural and functional materials in the laboratory and in nature. The importance of material cycles and resource efficiencies will also be taught, as well as approaches to solving the resulting scientific and engineering challenges. Taught at Salzburg Garching Straubing.
