Das Studium: Bachelor of Science in Engineering (BSc)

Das Bachelor-Studium Applied Chemistry an der IMC FH Krems wird in englischer Sprache geführt und ist an die Anforderungen der modernen chemischen Industrie angepasst.

Dabei wird beispielsweise sehr stark auf die Chemometrie – also die Anwendung von statistischen Methoden zur optimalen Planung, Entwicklung und Auswahl von chemischen Verfahren und Experimenten – und die damit verbundene computerunterstützte Auswertung großer Datenmengen (Big-Data-Analyse) gesetzt.

Beides nimmt bei der Qualitätssicherung und bei der Online-Prozessoptimierung eine Schlüsselposition ein.

Das computerunterstützte Modellieren von Molekülen oder die computergestützte Simulation von Experimenten ist auch in der Pharmaindustrie Voraussetzung für effizientes Wirkstoffdesign.

Zudem sind in diesem innovativen Studienprogramm eine fundierte chemische Ausbildung und zukunftsträchtige Aspekte, wie der Einsatz nachwachsender Rohstoffe, Recycling und die Verwertung von Abfallstoffen, geschickt vereint.

Durch die Verknüpfung chemischer Fachgebiete mit computerbasierten Methoden werden jene Kompetenzen vermittelt, die vonseiten der Industrie zukünftig immer stärker gefordert werden.

Besonders interessant: Es besteht für unsere Studierenden mit ausgezeichnetem Studienerfolg die Möglichkeit, sich für den Erhalt eines sogenannten Leistungsstipendiums des Fachverbandes der chemischen Industrie zu qualifizieren. Alle Informationen dazu erhalten Sie im Rahmen Ihres Studiums.

Geschichten aus dem Studium

Applied Chemistry leicht erklärt

Im Bereich der Naturwissenschaften ist fächerübergreifendes Denken von größter Bedeutung. Eine interdisziplinäre Herangehensweise ist notwendig, um fachliche Probleme effizient zu lösen und Antworten auf schwierige Fragestellungen zu finden.

Bei der Erstellung des Studienplans haben wir besonderen Wert auf eine optimale Abstimmung einzelner Themenbereiche gelegt. Auf diese Weise werden die Zusammenhänge zwischen diesen Teildisziplinen klar erörtert und interdisziplinäres Denken wird geschult.

Die Basisfächer der Chemie sind allgemeine, analytische, anorganische, organische und physikalische Chemie sowie Biochemie. Die angrenzenden Disziplinen Mathematik, Informatik, Statistik und Physik spielen für die Chemie eine ebenso wichtige Rolle wie auch die chemische Verfahrenstechnik.

Während des Studiums erhalten Sie eine fundierte Ausbildung in den oben genannten Disziplinen und haben somit die Möglichkeit, sich im Anschluss an die Grundausbildung in die für Sie interessanteste Richtung zu spezialisieren.

Komplexe Lehrinhalte werden in Übungen gemeinsam wiederholt. Auf diese Weise werden Anwendungsmöglichkeiten optimal verdeutlicht.

Auch bei diesen Übungen steht interdisziplinäres Verständnis im Vordergrund. Kleine Gruppen ermöglichen dabei intensiven Kontakt zwischen Studierenden und Vortragenden und garantieren individuelle Betreuung.
