The Bachelor's degree program in Engineering and Materials Science is a joint program offered by the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and the Paris Lodron University of Salzburg. This interdisciplinary program focuses on the optimal use and development of new materials to meet increasing demands for performance, functionality, and sustainability in products. Students will gain foundational knowledge in natural sciences and learn to apply it across various engineering applications, investigating and analyzing materials using modern techniques to develop lighter, more energy-efficient, environmentally friendly, and safer construction methods. Graduates will be well-prepared for careers in industry or for further studies at the Master's level.
Admission to this program is unrestricted. Details on specific academic entry requirements and the application process are managed by the Paris-Lodron University of Salzburg. Students enrolled at Paris Lodron University must also register at TUM to attend courses there.
The semester fee contributes to the student union and varies by campus location. For Munich, Garching, Weihenstephan, and Heilbronn, it is 97.00 EUR per semester. This fee is in addition to any tuition fees for international students.
International students from third countries (non-EEA) pay 1,500 EUR per semester. This is in addition to the semester fee of 97.00 EUR, which covers student union contributions and varies by campus. Many international students may be eligible for fee waivers or scholarships.
The standard duration for the Bachelor's degree program in Engineering and Materials Science is 6 semesters, which is equivalent to 180 ECTS credits.
German language proficiency is required for admission to this program.
The application process is managed by the Paris-Lodron University of Salzburg. You should consult their website for detailed instructions, required documents, and application deadlines. If admitted, you will also need to register with TUM to attend courses in Munich.
Graduates will have a strong understanding of materials science and natural sciences, preparing them for industrial careers or further specialization through a Master's degree program.
