Which dMAT Battery Science advanced specialisation should I prepare for?
Match your advanced dMAT module to your Bachelor's degree: chemical or chemistry graduates choose chemistry, EEE or ECE graduates choose electrical engineering, mechanical or production choose mechanical, and CSE or IT graduates choose computer science. Always confirm your final choice with g.a.s.t. before registering.
You should prepare for the advanced specialisation that most closely matches your Bachelor's degree, since the dMAT Battery Science module lets you sit one of five discipline tracks: chemistry, physics, computer science, electrical engineering or mechanical engineering. Getting this match right before you start revising saves you weeks of preparing the wrong pages.
Matching Your Degree to a Specialisation
| Your Bachelor's Degree | Recommended Advanced Module |
|---|---|
| B.Tech Chemical Engineering or B.Sc Chemistry | Chemistry: Acid-Base Reactions, Infrared Spectroscopy |
| B.Tech Electrical or Electronics (EEE / ECE) | Electrical Engineering: Resistor Networks, System Analysis |
| B.Tech Mechanical or Production Engineering | Mechanical Engineering: Mathematics II, The Rankine Cycle |
| B.Tech Computer Science or IT | Computer Science: Combinational Logic, Linear Transformations / LDA |
| B.Sc or B.Tech Engineering Physics | Physics: Oscillations and Corrections, Waves and Solid States |
Steps to Confirm Your Choice
- Check how the module is selected at registration on the g.a.s.t. portal, since the process, not this guide, is the final word.
- If your degree does not map neatly onto one row, list your final-year subjects and see which discipline they cluster under.
- Email g.a.s.t. at kontakt@gast.de if you remain unsure, rather than guessing and finding out too late to switch.

My Advice
Write down your final two years of coursework, tick off which of the five disciplines each subject belongs to, and let the majority decide. Do this a full month before your registration deadline, not the week of, so you have time to email g.a.s.t. if the answer is not obvious.
