Location of Radboud University Nijmegen
As a chemist you juggle with matter. You dissect, analyze and build. Our Chemistry Master´s programme, which provides you with an exceptional tool box for your future, is closely associated with the Institute for Molecules and Materials (IMM). At this research institute physicists and chemists work together to explore the properties of molecules and materials. This cooperation in one research institute is unique in the world.
Our Faculty of Science has unique facilities and equipment for investigating the properties of materials and molecules. The High Field Magnet Laboratory (HFML) attracts scientists from all over the world to Nijmegen. In addition, we have the NanoLab, the NMR Lab, the Laser Lab and the Free Electron Laser. Also, the Nijmegen Centre for Advanced Spectrometry draws top international researchers to Nijmegen. As a Master´s student you will be able to use these facilities and in doing so you will work at the cutting edge of science.
Our scientists participate in various EU research projects. They also do a considerable amount of contract research for international companies. Your personal tutor will be one of these top scientists and for your specialization you will join one of our research groups, for example, organic chemistry, solid state chemistry or bio-physical chemistry.
Most of our graduates take up a PhD position, either in Nijmegen or elsewhere in the world. Our research institutes have many vacancies for PhD projects every year. Our graduates also find work as researchers and managers in industry, in business and in research institutes.
