Graduates of the Applied Chemistry degree programme find occupational fields

  • in companies in the chemical industry
  • in analytical laboratories
  • in the pharmaceutical industry
  • in the food industry
  • in areas of plastics production and processing
  • in agricultural technology
  • in research institutes, at universities and universities of applied sciences
  • in food monitoring authorities and environmental agencies
  • in the field of waste management and recycling


to name just the most important ones.

The task of a Bachelor's student in the field of study of Applied Chemistry is the implementation of findings from science and research in the following areas of responsibility:

  • Production
  • development
  • Technical sales
  • manufacturing
  • Monitoring and validation of production processes


Positions in higher-level functions, particularly in quality management, occupational safety and patents, are also filled by graduates of the Applied Chemistry degree programme.

In addition to the direct transition into professional life, graduates have the opportunity to begin a Master's degree programme. Building on our 7-semester Bachelor's degree programme, we offer a 3-semester Master's degree programme. Alternatively, you can also transfer to other universities for a Master's programme. The Master's degree qualifies you for admission to a doctoral programme.
