Location of Stockholm University
The Master’s programme in Peptide- and Protein Chemistry is aimed at students holding a Bachelor’s Degree in Chemistry or a corresponding degree in Technical or Natural Science and is given jointly by the Department of Neurochemistry and the Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics. The aim of the programme is to provide students with a broad insight into the chemistry, chemical properties, functions and applications of peptides and proteins. Central parts of the programme are in-depth knowledge of biochemical methods, solid-state peptide synthesis and spectroscopy of biomolecules as well as structure-function relationships and mechanisms of action of peptides and proteins.
The programme consists of compulsory courses (45 credits in total) and at least three specialized courses that can be chosen from among five courses, up to 30 credits freely chosen elective courses and a Degree Project, which is conducted in a research group at the Department of Neurochemistry or at the Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics. The programme provides a good platform for further graduate studies or for a professional career, both in Sweden and internationally.
Contents
The programme is offered in collaboration between the Department of Biochemistry and the Department of Neurochemistry.
The programme consists of three or four compulsory courses comprising a total of 45 higher education credits, at least one eligible advanced course (15 higher education credits) and a degree project of 30 or 45 higher education credits. There is additional scope for completely optional academic courses of at most 30 higher education credits, depending on the scope of the degree project. The programme offers knowledge of
biochemical and biophysical properties of peptides and proteins. It is intimately connected with research work at both departments and is designed to cover most specializations within peptide- and protein chemistry. The programme offers a structured selection of courses of a scope and depth to let the student meet the requirements for a master's degree within the major field of peptide- and protein chemistry. The programme provides a good foundation for research education and for a professional career, both domestically and internationally.
