The Chemistry Faculty at the TU Braunschweig offers a cutting-edge course of study in all relevant areas of chemistry. Great value is placed both on excellent experimental training in the internships and on imparting sound theoretical knowledge. The fully committed teachers have developed the curriculum in recent years and have implemented innovative teaching projects, such as the expansion of research-based learning in the internships and the use of 3D printing and virtual reality in class.

Students receive the best possible support in preparing for stays abroad, for example as part of the Erasmus programme in France, Great Britain or Sweden. Study achievements earned abroad are recognised flexibly. Through a long-standing exchange programme with the University of Utah, seven students, mostly funded by scholarships, can study in the USA after a selection procedure.

Chemistry at TU Braunschweig has excellent practical opportunities for students. In recent years, the equipment provided for practicals has been consistently renewed through the use of programme quality funds as well as internal and external funding programmes (such as the Chemical Industry Fund). Students are thus introduced to the most modern methods early on in their studies.

Students are involved in ongoing research projects at an early stage in the Bachelor's and, in particular, in the Master's programme. Dept. Chemistry is involved at TU Braunschweig in several interdisciplinary research centres, such as the Braunschweig Centre for Systems Biology in cooperation with the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research or the Laboratory for Emerging Nanometrology, here cooperating with the "Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt" (German national metrology institute), as well as the Lower Saxony Automotive Research Centre.

There is a series of support services in the chemistry faculty to enable students to study successfully regardless of their personal background or starting conditions (e.g. mentoring programme). The degree-course coordinators, the Dean of Studies and all lecturers are available for ongoing advice concerning diversity-oriented measures. Furthermore, all lecturers as well as the degree-course coordinators are committed to promoting equal opportunities.
