The Faculty of Applied Chemistry has a long history steeped in tradition. Following the foundation of the Städtischen Polytechnischen Schule (city polytechnic school) in 1823, the first chemist, Dr. Friedrich Wilhelm Engelhart, was appointed as a teacher of physics and chemistry at the school in 1829.

Today, around 500 students are taught by 17 professors in the bachelor’s and master’s degree programmes, supported by over 40 adjunct teaching staff and scientific and technical staff.

Impressions of the Faculty of Applied Chemistry

At the Faculty of Applied Chemistry, chemistry is not only studied and researched, but also celebrated and discussed and we are passionate about communicating our love of all aspects of chemistry at events like the Long Night of Sciences, the KinderUni, Science Slams, or many other events and workshops.

Here are a few pictures from our current activities - more information and more pictures are available on our web pages. Enjoy!
