Studying chemistry at Stockholm University is about working closely in small groups with some of the world's best chemists. Students learn to set theory into practice in problem-based teaching that prepares them for challenging careers in a wide spectrum of fields as well as academic research.
While the Materials and Environmental Chemistry Department is focused primarily on research, Stockholm University offers educational opportunities in materials and environmental science at all levels - basic, advanced and research.
Bachelors' Programmes
Bachelor's programmes, held in Swedish, are 3-year programmes administered through the Chemistry Section. The first two years cover the different fields of chemistry, and in the third year you specialise in your field of interest and complete a diploma project.
Masters' programmes, held in English and administered through the Chemistry Section, are two years and have a strong research focus, finishing with a diploma project.
Doctoral programmes focus on one of four topics: Inorganic Chemistry, Materials Chemistry, Physical Chemistry and Analytical Chemistry. The 4-year programmes include both coursework and independent research, culminating in a PhD thesis.
