Five Reasons to choose this Master's Program
Course Description
Turn theory into technology. This English-taught Master's trains you to model and simulate material behavior across all length scales, from single atoms right up to full-scale structures. At TU Bergakademie Freiberg, renowned researchers pair rigorous natural-science foundations with hands-on scientific programming, finite element methods, molecular dynamics, phase-field methods, and machine learning techniques. Small, selective cohorts of top-performing students, an exceptional staff-to-student ratio, and research applications drawn from real industrial problems prepare you to become a key player in high-tech materials research and development.
This program suits graduates with a first degree of at least six semesters in mechanical engineering, materials science, physics, applied mathematics, computer science, or a related field. It fits scientifically minded problem-solvers with an affinity for computers who want to model physical laws and simulate material behavior, and who are enthusiastic about machine learning and AI.
Special Program Features
Learn among the top five percent
Small, selective cohorts of high-performing students create an intensive, discussion-rich environment where your own ideas develop through close daily exchange with peers.
Affordable student town
Freiberg is a charming, historic student town in Saxony with notably low living costs, short distances, and a safe, welcoming atmosphere ideal for focused international study.
One language, two advantages

Testimonials
I liked the way CMS was structured as lectures and tutorials. It gave us a much needed hands-on experience of using programming languages and solving problems associated with the lecture topics. CMS kept me busy and excited day in and day out with its new interdisciplinary dimensions. I got a stronghold in programming by the end of the course. I have always stood out in my workspace for the engineering and programming skills that I bring to them. Overall, it has been an incredible journey for me.
