The Bachelor's degree programme in Chemistry

Everything is made up of chemical compounds. Yourself, your phone and your lunch. The Chemistry programme is for those who want to understand the universe of chemistry, which is hidden in everything around us.

In the Chemistry programme, you learn how chemical compounds are built and what properties they have. You learn how chemical compounds can be put together in new ways in the laboratory, and you can help develop completely new materials and molecules, which can, for example, be used in the green transition.

The Chemistry programme is a broad education, and the degree overlaps with many other natural science subjects. With this knowledge, you can, for example, help develop more climate-friendly batteries, manufacture drugs with fewer side effects or produce the sustainable plastics of the future.
