We are surrounded by electrochemical processes and their applications in our daily lives: Batteries and fuel cells convert chemical energy (e.g. in the form of lithium or hydrogen) into electrical energy. Many surfaces that we come into contact with are electroplated, e.g. cell phone casings or fittings. Corrosion processes and electrolysis, which are used to store energy or produce materials, are also electrochemical in nature.
The Master's degree course in Electrochemistry and Electroplating provides a comprehensive understanding of electrochemical processes and their applications. Thanks to good contacts with national and international industry, students gain an early insight into how the acquired knowledge is applied in practice through internships and excursions.
The Master's degree course in Electrochemistry and Electroplating Technology is unique in Germany. Another unique selling point is the opportunity to apply for a scholarship from the Zentralverband Oberflächentechnik e.V. (Central Association for Surface Technology). The degree program is integrated into a strong complementary environment (including power electronics, energy technology, mechanical engineering), which provides an excellent basis for a future career. Our graduates always have a wide range of job offers and quickly find their way into industrial or academic careers, e.g. in the fields of energy, materials and surfaces, mobility or medicine.
Janine and Marcel take you on an exciting tour of the campus of the TU Ilmenau and through Ilmenau itself. They describe how they live and study in Ilmenau, give numerous leisure tips and insights into the study location of the TU Ilmenau and take you to hidden places in the city.
