The Bachelor of Science in Applied Geosciences program is being discontinued! Enrollment – including for higher semesters – is suspended. Therefore, enrollment will no longer be possible starting in the summer semester of 2026!
Structure of the Study Programme
The study programme is structured as follows:
- Compulsory courses in which the fundamentals of mathematics, physics and chemistry are taught (lectures, exercises, practical courses).
- Compulsory geoscientific courses covering the fundamentals of geology, mineralogy, petrology and geochemistry (lectures, exercises).
- Applied geoscience subjects and topics such as hydrogeology, engineering geology, geothermal energy, and atmospheric science are already taught during the bachelor's programme.
- Field and laboratory internships as well as excursions based on geoscientific fundamentals and applied hands-on topics.
- Geoscientific electives with additional course options such as soil science, geophysics and others.
- There is also an interdisciplinary elective course (e.g. computer science, ecology, economics, geotechnics…).
- In the final bachelor thesis, you will work on a small research project.
