Organic chemistry, biochemistry, and organometallic chemistry are the foundation for a fundamental understanding of the relationship between molecular structure and performance. This field supplies society with the molecules and materials we need for our health, transportation, energy, agriculture and communication. Understanding how molecules function is one of the most important worldwide challenges in chemistry

Is Molecular Sciences in Amsterdam?the track for me?

It is, if you:

  • have a solid background in the core disciplines of chemistry
  • are interested in using the molecule as the starting point for gaining fundamental insights about materials and chemical, biological and physical processes
  • want to move from understanding chemical and physical processes, to predicting and controlling them
  • are eager to apply your knowledge and skills in areas of fundamental importance to society such as energy, sustainability, health and materials sciences
  • want the benefits of a small-scale programme in which students and staff are in close contact.
