Perspectives & Job Prospects
The career opportunities after your studies are wide-ranging. When looking for a job, the solution-oriented approach to challenges during your studies, the mathematical training and the sharpening of logical thinking will help you. The networks you will build during your studies are also very important. In the professional world, graduates are expected to be scientifically independent, flexible and able to familiarize themselves with new fields of work on their own. Jobs can be found in general in the environment of energy-relevant fields of work and
e.g.:
in research and development laboratories in industry and in sales, in large-scale research institutions (e.g., Max Planck and Fraunhofer Institutes), at state institutions such as environmental ministries in institutes of environmental protection in the environment of management consultancies and energy consulting firms, in research on renewable energies. Information and advice for prospective students on how to get started is also provided by the Academic Advising Centre.
