Students will acquire the skills to solve problems in a scientifically structured manner, considering related disciplines, and to communicate their knowledge to colleagues and laypersons in english. Graduates will be enabled to contribute to research in their subject area beyond the current state of the art and acquire advanced skills and knowledge by themselves.
