At present our "Master in Industrial Chemistry" is supported by BASF, Budenheim, SGL Carbon and Wacker while the Master programme in "Integrated Circuit Design" is sponsored mainly by Infineon. The upcoming Master in "Microelectronics" has found a strong partner in Siltronic AG. These companies offer scholarships to selected students allowing highly gifted students to participate in a unique educational programme while the partners themselves have the opportunity to seek and attract prospective top-level employees.

Besides providing the students with scholarships our partners also commit their time and expertise to our programmes. Industry professionals guarantee excellent supervision for students working with them for the duration of their internship and/or master thesis. Moreover top-level personnel from our worldwide industry partners are actively involved in the ten month of coursework sharing their expertise and bring to the classroom the industry's actual challenges.
