How is Chemistry structured?

The master’s programme in Chemistry is studied over 2 years, and each academic year is divided into 2 semesters. There are opportunities for exchange stays and industry collaborations during the course of study.

Below, you can see an overview of the programme structure. If you start the degree in February, the master’s programme follows a slightly different structure, with the first and second semesters reversed.

Choices and options

In the Chemistry programme, you have great opportunities to shape your education through elective courses and project topics. You can also undertake a company project within a business or organisation to test your knowledge in practice.

Additionally, you have the option to go on an exchange programme and gain international experience.

In the 2nd year, you will complete your education with your master’s thesis.
