Whether it's about sustainable development or cure for diseases, the tools provided by chemistry can make a real impact. The Chemistry Section offers you a journey through physical, inorganic, organic bio-, neuro- and analytical chemistry. The chemistry courses we offer are filled with interesting lectures and exciting labs.
Subject description
Chemistry is so much more than balancing reaction formulas. Chemistry is the subject that extends from the world of atoms and how you can put them together to the chemistry that controls all life.
If you choose to enrol in our Bachelor's programme you will also study mathematics, data management and research methodology. During the course of the programme you will develop skills in project planning and improve your ability to record information, analyse, summarize and present it. The chemistry programme ends with a research project performed at a university or at a company in Sweden or abroad.
Our master's programmes are designed for those who want to deepen their knowledge within a specific area of chemistry. You will study intensely for two years under the guidance of prominent researchers at one of our chemistry departments. The education is based on your theoretical and practical knowledge and takes you to the absolute forefront of chemistry. The master's programmes conclude with a longer research project either within academia or industry in Sweden or abroad.
Career opportunities
Chemists have a wide range of possibilities. Depending on the kind of chemistry you choose to immerse yourself in, you can work with everything from developing the next sustainable energy source to the production of biological drugs or risk assessments of cosmetics. Chemists assess risks, invent, create, spread knowledge and save the world.
Our courses provide you with chemical knowledge, ability to explain what you do and tools to analyse and solve problems. The job market looks bright and the demand for chemists will increase over the next few years.
