According to the Examination Regulation of May 2015, the master program is modularized. Most of the modules are finishing with a graded examination (s. below). The final grade is calculated by all marks of the modules. In addition, all examinations are recorded with ECTS (see Examination Regulation).
Overview study program
The study program offers the following two options (see figure):
Shorcuts:
V=lecture, P=lab course, S=seminar, Coll=Colloquium; SWS=hours per week, ECTS=credit points, MP=module exam, MTP=submodul exam;
Option A):
- The choice of three major subjects (required electives, WB-A, WB-B, WB-C) in chemistry fields 1)-4) with 30 ECTS credits each - see below.\ Each major subject comprise a lab module with a specialized research lab course with seminar (with 16+2 SWS) and a theoretical module, which encompasses a compulsory colloquium and a large number of lecture courses (between four and ten) from which three must be chosen (3x2 SWS). Both modules of a major are graded. The theoretical module has an oral examination covering the three chosen lectures and the colloquium.\ \ Following major subjects and their required modules (WP) can be chosen, each with 15 ECTS (details see module scheme below):
- 1) in the major subject Anorganische Chemie the modules WP 1 and WP 2
- 2) in the major subject Organische Chemie the modules WP 3 and WP 4
- 3) in the major subject Physikalische Chemie the modules WP 6 and WP 41
-
4) in the major subject Theoretische Chemie the modules WP 7 and WP 42
-
The master thesis within 6 months (30 ECTS).
Option B):
- The choice of two major subjects (required electives, WB) in chemistry fields 1)-4) with 30 ECTS credits each (see option A) above).\ Each major subject comprise a lab module with a specialized research lab course with seminar (with 16+2 SWS) and a theoretical module, which encompasses a compulsory colloquium and a large number of lecture courses (between four and ten) from which three must be chosen (3x2 SWS). Both modules of a major are graded. The theoretical module has an oral examination covering the three chosen lectures and the colloquium.
- One additional minor subject with 15 ECTS (s. below).\ The minor subject comprises a lab module with a specialized research lab course (10 SWS) and a theoretical module, which encompasses a number of lecture courses from which two must be chosen (2x2 SWS). Subjects which had been chosen as a major may not be taken as minor subject! The structure of the modules may be different in minor subjects not from the Department of Chemistry, e.g. in physics, computer sciences, etc. Both modules of the minor are graded.
