Special features regarding teaching
The Bachelor's degree course in Chemistry combines basic theory with modern practice and prepares students for the research-oriented and English-language Master's programme in Chemistry. A major strength of the department is the very good supervision of students due to the comparatively small ratio of students to professors in chemistry. In addition to the usual student counselling, lecturers of confidence are available for students who mediate confidentially in conflict situations.
Special features regarding the international orientation
The department has a strong international orientation and offers an English-language Master's degree course in "Chemistry" and an English-language Master's degree course in "Nanoscience and Nanotechnology". In the department, many international students study in the master's degree courses and in the doctoral degree course. The research groups in the department regularly host international guest researchers and collaborate in international research projects.
Special features regarding the equipment
The Department of Chemistry and Biology has modern technical and apparatus equipment, a precision mechanics workshop and a glassblower. In addition, the Equipment Centre for Micro- and Nanoanalytics has the most modern large-scale equipment for micro- and nanoanalytics, which is made available to a wide range of users.
Support for founders
The start-up office Connect.US is the central transfer office of the University of Siegen. It initiates and supports the transfer of technology and knowledge between science and industry. The team advises students, employees, scientists and alumni on the specification and implementation of a start-up idea. In the initiative "Startpunkt57" an association of university and regional companies and institutions offers seminars and workshops as well as financial support.
Other special features
The Equal Opportunities Office at the University of Siegen supports students in all matters relating to equal opportunities and promotes the career development of young female academics through the FraMeS programme. Furthermore, scholarships are offered as transitional funding for female doctoral students.
