Programme profile


Chemistry is the study of molecules and how they interact. As a chemist equipped with this knowledge, you can produce new substances and materials or devise solutions for all manner of problems.

Chemists are often involved in the development of new medicines, or in the search for new synthetic materials with special properties. Or you may help to create a more sustainable world because you have devised new solutions for generating energy, for example using sunlight or motion. Chemistry also plays a crucial role in the cosmetics and food industries.

The  Groningen science faculty is the home of the 2016 Nobel Prize Winner in Chemistry, Ben Feringa, and the Nobel Prize winner in Physics, Frits Zernike.

Programme content


Students opt to follow one of three specializsations:

- Smart Materials
Within this specialisation you will search for 'smart' materials, for example those who produce electricity or can change temperature.

- Chemistry of Life
With chemistry of life you study how molecules in living organisms execute chemical processes.

- Sustainable Chemistry and Energy
Within the specialisation sustainable chemistry and energy you use chemistry to enhance sustainability and to produce clean energy.
