Annotation

Global environmental changes and the scarcity of natural resources are presenting our society with a variety of challenges. Research into the Earth system makes important contributions to resource management and researches solutions to problems in areas such as crude oil and raw material geology and materials science. The Master's degree programme in Geosciences offers interdisciplinary education that is unique throughout Germany with the possibility of specialising in geology, soil science and mineralogy. On the one hand, it is oriented towards research in the terrestrial, marine and atmospheric geosciences and, on the other hand, towards the needs of the labour market in Germany and abroad.
