Conserving natural resources is the primary objective when it comes to the future. Doing so will sustainably improve and secure our livelihoods and those of our descendants. The UAS Bingen was the first university in Germany to establish a course of study in environmental protection in 1974. Since then, the curricula and teaching methods have continuously been adapted to the latest developments.
Interdisciplinary teaching takes priority in the Master’s in Environmental Sustainability programme.
Students from different Bachelor's programmes come together to contribute their expertise to international and interdisciplinary projects. Classes are taught in English, and additional modules in German are available.

Course structure
The Master’s degree programme is designed for a standard period of study of three semesters and 90 ECTS credits. It concludes with the awarding of the academic degree of Master of Science (MSc).
Each semester begins with a project workshop for all students. First-year students learn methods and choose their project topic. Higher-semester students present their project status. Only the project and Master’s thesis are compulsory. Any remaining modules are entirely the students’ choices. The individual academic advisory service will support you to create suitable combinations, considering your existing knowledge, interests and career goals.
Lectures, seminars and practical internships are held during the first two semesters. The third semester is dedicated to the Master’s thesis. A semester abroad is optional but not compulsory.

We follow the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS). There are currently no numerus clausus restrictions in admissions. The general university entrance qualification ("Allgemeine Hochschulzugangsberechtigung") for the Master's programme is a Bachelor's grade of at least 2.5 or better.
The applicant should have an affinity for environmental protection and sustainability. The MSc addresses Bachelor's graduates from Germany and abroad who have completed a degree in engineering, natural sciences, or even in business or law. In addition, students should be willing to acquire extra fundamentals on their own and get involved in topics not related to their field of study.
