Location of University of Bremen

Chemistry is the branch of science concerned with the properties of elements and compounds, as well as the transformation of one substance into another. It makes predictions about hitherto unknown compounds, provides methods for the synthesis of new compounds as well as measuring techniques for the analysis of the chemical composition of unknown samples. The structure and composition of substances determines their chemical and physical properties and hence makes chemistry such an extensive field.

Subsequent non-teaching occupational fields

The career opportunities open to chemists cover an extremely broad field. They range from fundamental research at universities or research institutes (such as the Max-Planck-Institute or Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft) to the most diverse aspects of research, development and production in chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Further opportunities lie in environmental and biotechnological research, in sales, in production management and quality assurance, business consulting, public administration, patenting, in environmental agencies and not least in education. Besides employment in enterprises or public administration there are a number of other opportunities outside the fields of natural sciences and technology, e.g. science journalism, public uderstanding of science, public relations, political consultation or project management.

Possibilities for additional qualifications

The graduation/final degree enables/ qualifies you to take on scientific master studies in the courses of study: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (BMB), M.Sc.Materialwissenschaftliche Mineralogie, Chemie und Physik. M.Sc. Computational Materials Science (CMS), M.Sc. Marine Microbiology, M.Sc. Medical Biometry/Biostatistics.


Contents

The full-time chemistry course ending in Bachelor of Science (B. Sc.) provides a sound experimental and theoretical training across the entire range of classical subdivisions of chemistry (inorganic, analytical, organic and physical chemistry), as well as in biochemistry, theoretical chemistry and – a local speciality – in marine chemistry.

Area foci/ modules for advanced specialisation

Subject areas include general, inorganic, organic, analytical, physical and theoretical chemistry, as well as bio- and marine chemistry. Core components deal with fundamental chemistry (terminology, theories, methods) and develop these from an experimental basis. Further modules comprise the fundamental chemistry-relevant competencies in biology, physics and mathematics. Electives chosen in the third year of the course from the research interests of the Institute of Chemistry contribute to the acquisition of in-depth knowledge.

General Studies

General Studies account for 25% of the study programme. These courses train key competences for subsequent career fields. By building their own individual specialities, students are able to shape and amplify their academic profile.
School-related studies for trainee teachers - general, incl. studies in education In this programme area, subject-related studies in the field of teacher training are supplemented with courses dealing with teaching practice. This programme area comprises 25% to 50% of studies in the field of teacher training, depending on the type of school envisaged. It encompasses the following topics: studies in education, subject didactics, internships and key qualifications.

Work practicals

Internships in the educational field focus on teaching in schools, during which observed and own teaching activities provide insights into schoolteaching and test one's own aptitude for the teaching profession. Within the framework of this career-related work experience students have to complete an orientation phase, a theoretical phase, and a teaching phase.

Requirements

General qualification for university entrance or specific higher education entrance qualification (e.g. Abitur, Einstufungsprüfung).
