Programme Overview

At TU Bergakademie Freiberg, we bring together experienced researchers and lecturers from different scientific communities to offer our graduate students the education needed for a successful career in modern materials science. Since the winter semester of 2017/2018, the international Master's programme in Metallic Materials Technology has been offered at TU Bergakademie Freiberg. Manufacturing of metallic components is one of the most important fields of any national economy. Starting with the production of materials followed by processing and metal forming, it is one of the most innovative technologies. Engineers in metal production, metal forming, and foundry technology contribute to this technological development. Based on the knowledge that has been gained in a Bachelor's course of studies, a deeper knowledge of steel production, non-ferrous metallurgy, metal forming, and foundry technology will be developed in this Master's programme. Furthermore, practical skills related to economics knowledge are gained.
