The four-semester full-time study program “Master of Science in Applied Geosciences’’ offered by RWTH Aachen University provides a combination of engineering geology and hydrogeology studies with a strong focus on geophysics. Students who enrol in this study program will receive a more intense training, acquire excellent skills, and in-depth knowledge about the construction, dynamics and the chemistry of Earth. The study program in Applied Geosciences offers a blend of different subjects such as geology, geochemistry mineralogy, crystallography, and geophysics. Furthermore, students will be able to choose from a variety of specialization elective courses in Geoengineering, Energy and Mineral Resources, and Applied Mineralogy and Crystallography. Since the program is mainly application-oriented the career prospects for graduates with a degree in Applied Geosciences are very good and diverse. Some of the job opportunities that can be pursued can be found in the industries of raw material extraction and processing, civil engineering, building construction, development, manufacturing and distribution of analytical devices, and others.
