A Bachelor's degree, equivalent to a Swedish Kandidatexamen, from an internationally recognised university. Also required is: 75 credits in the fields of chemistry, physics, materials science, and/or engineering; and 15 credits in mathematics.
Proficiency in English equivalent to the Swedish upper secondary course English 6. This requirement can be met either by achieving the required score on an internationally recognised test, or by previous upper secondary or university studies in some countries.
Prepare for a career in both world-class academic research and the battery/electromobility industry, with our Master's Programme in Battery Technology and Energy Storage. Regardless of whether you have a background in chemistry or engineering, you will gain a keen understanding of the fundamentals of battery materials, cells and systems to be able to participate in both academic and industrial research in this expansive labour market. With a basis in the chemistry of batteries, the Master’s Programme in Battery Technology and Energy Storage is designed for students that are aiming for broad knowledge within the function and use of batteries to support the transformation toward a more sustainable and resilient society. Through the integration of chemistry, materials, and engineering, you will acquire knowledge of how to design, construct, and implement electrochemical energy storage devices. Within the Ångström Advanced Battery Centre (ÅABC), Uppsala University harbours one of Europe's largest education and research facilities dedicated to the science and development of batteries, with close ties to global industrial players within the entire battery value chain – from producers to end users. You will meet some of the main actors in the European and Swedish industries in the field
