TUM School of Natural Sciences

Chemistry, physics and bioscience form a single unit

Our School combines excellence in teaching and research in the fields of bioscience, chemistry and physics. Our many interdisciplinary research areas enrich our profile, making us an international leader with extraordinary scientific breadth and depth.

Mission Statement: "Discovery at all scales"

Our School is committed to an integrative and dynamic learning environment engaged in pioneering research across the natural sciences. In three departments and in interdisciplinary integrative research centers, we explore, understand, and predict nature’s phenomena at all scales. Combining physical, chemical, and biological concepts bridged by engineering approaches, we create solutions for the fundamental societal challenges and educate the next generation.
