Advanced Materials

["Which material properties can extend the service life of anelectric car battery? Whichcoatingis suitable for increasing the efficiency of asolar cell? Which materials are suitable forimplantsso that they are not rejected by the human body? These are the questions addressed by the Master's degree programme in Advanced Materials at Justus Liebig University Giessen (JLU).Advanced materials aremodern functional materialsthat have been modified at the molecular level in order tooptimisethem for specific applications. Today, these specially developed materials are of immense importance in all high-tech areas such asmedicine, mobility, communication, energy supply and aerospace. For the development of advanced materials, interdisciplinary knowledge fromchemistryandphysicsis used to understand and change the interplay of material properties as well ascreativityanda spirit of discoveryin their practical optimisation in the laboratory.Theresearch-orientedMaster's degree programme in Advanced Materials provides you with the theoretical and practical knowledge to tailor materials for future applications and develop them further in a professional environment. The scientific degree programme is firmlyintegrated into current materials research in Giessenwith its focus on high-performance materials and energy materials. This gives you the opportunity towork on current research projects. You can also set a clear focus in your studies bychoosing a specialisation.If you are passionate about science, enjoy working experimentally and are looking for a Master's programme withexcellent career opportunities, then this is the place for you!This degree programme also offers the unique opportunity to obtain adouble degree, e.g.withOsakaUniversity (Japan),KansaiUniversity (Japan) and the University ofPadua(Italy)."]
