Degrees recognized as subject-related are, in particular, bachelor’s or diploma degrees in chemistry, physics, mechanical engineering, process engineering as well as in courses of study with a broad material science focus, if and to the extent that the following minimum knowledge was acquired in them:

1. at least 10 ECTS credits in mathematics,
2. at least 20 ECTS credits in physics and chemistry,
3. at least 10 ECTS credits in lab work and IT, and
