About this programme

Our Applied Geosciences MSc profile in Sustainable Energy, Resources & Storage (ERS) provides an understanding of the earth's upper crust, utilised by humankind. The language of instruction in ERS is English . Topics Basic geological knowledge with strong analytical and numerical relevance Geothermal energy Environmentally friendly mining of mineral and metallic raw materials Hydrogen as a new gas and transitional gas Underground storage of renewable energy and long-term storage Career Our graduates continue their careers in national and international companies and institutions that deal with the following: exploration and production underground storage environmental protection civil engineering and tunnel construction research Thriving student activities at KIT is driven by our SPE student chapter focusing on energy and storage, and our Black Forest-Alpine SGA student chapter focusing on raw materials. Movies of our students are presented on Facebook and YouTube . The ERS profile is closely linked to our KIT research in the Helmholtz programme for GeoEnergy and Storage, and the national think tank Industrial Resources Strategies on raw materials supply. Helmholtz's geothermal energy programme strives for internationally visible large scale infrastructures. The institute hosts the State's Research Unit on Geothermics evaluating wells and well logging tools. It offers world-class analytical facilities, such as geochemical and petrophysical laboratories, and IT infrastructure.
