About the Program

The master's programme focuses on advanced, already research-oriented courses in the subjects of inorganic, organic and physical chemistry, as well as in the subjects surrounding the department's main research areas, especially life sciences and material sciences. Students choose one subject of specialisation from the three major subjects: inorganic, organic and physical chemistry. As electives, the program offers analytical chemistry, biochemistry, chemical material sciences, geochemistry and environmental chemistry, theoretical chemistry, industrial chemistry as well as fields of study from biology, computer science, mathematics and physics. The courses are designed with interdisciplinarity in mind to help reduce barriers between traditional subjects of chemistry.
