Master in hydrogen technologies: Chemnitz is committed to a green future!
From the winter semester 2025/2026, Chemnitz University of Technology will be offering a new master's degree program in the field of “Hydrogen Technologies”. This course of study has the clear goal of meeting the skilled workers needs of the ever-growing hydrogen economy and is aimed at students with a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or an equivalent university degree. The university initiative is part of a comprehensive commitment to sustainable energy developments and innovative technologies in Germany.
The course covers comprehensive aspects of hydrogen, from production to transport to use. One focus is on the engineering development of components for fuel cells and electrolyzers and their integration into complex energy systems. The students receive practical training and can carry out experimental investigations on modern test benches, which complements the theoretical content with practical experience.
Contents and modules of the degree program
The master's degree program includes a total of eight modules that deal with different subject areas. This includes not only hydrogen itself, but also sustainable electrical energy production, energy storage technologies and the concept of sustainability. Students can also expect in-depth training in project management and scientific work, supplemented by English courses.
An additional feature of the program is the choice of specializations in technology and business, which allows students to pursue their individual interests. Information from Study check report that Chemnitz University of Technology has excellent facilities and a family atmosphere that ensures excellent support for students.
Innovative approaches and collaborations
As part of the course, an open source research platform for fuel cell and electrolyzer systems is used. This platform offers students the opportunity to work on cutting-edge technologies and develop new approaches in hydrogen research. Chemnitz University of Technology is also a member of the innovation cluster HZwo e. V., which offers access to more than 150 companies and research institutions worldwide.
The city of Chemnitz is considered student-friendly and attractive, which makes life easier for students. Chemnitz University of Technology particularly highlights the opportunity to study at one of the four national hydrogen centers in Germany and positions it as an important player in the research and development of renewable energies.
The career prospects for graduates of the new course are promising and cover a wide spectrum, ranging from technical development and project management to strategic consulting in the field of renewable energies. Chemnitz University of Technology is thus making a significant contribution to the training of specialists who will support the transition to a more sustainable energy future TU Chemnitz reported.
