14 Environmental Chemistry & Toxicology Masters in Sweden

Master in Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology is a multidisciplinary field. This programme is therefore firmly based on both physics and chemistry to provide a thorough understanding of the properties of nanosized systems and to provide the skills to prepare them.

Master in Biology

The Master Programme in Biology provides you with a first-class education with considerable freedom to create your own profile. Sweden’s largest range of courses in biology and biotechnology enables you to obtain the required subject-depth and improve your personal competitiveness in the labor market. We also provide systematic communication coaching with exercises in both oral and written presentations.

Master in Enviromental Sciences

Environmental science is a young science that deals with human impacts on nature, on the cultural heritage, and on our health. Environmental science studies the threats to the common future on Earth, but also the opportunities that these challenges create.

Master in Toxicology

The Master's Programme in Toxicology gives students an in-depth knowledge of the broad and interdisciplinary toxicological field. The programme prepares students for either a research or professional career, and provides a solid platform for doctoral studies in toxicology or work in risk/safety assessment-related areas in the public sector or industry.

Master in Nanoscience

The nanoscience Master´s programme at Lund University has its scientific base in a physics description of nanoscale phenomena, but in addition to nanophysics you can, depending on your background and interests, choose to specialise in fields such as nanoelectronics, materials chemistry or biophysics.

Master in Ecotoxicology

Ecotoxicology is concerned with the environmental impact of these substances. It aims at characterizing, understanding and finally predicting the effects of toxic chemicals on plant and animal populations, communities and whole ecosystems. As such, ecotoxicology is the scientific basis for environmental frameworks such as for example the new REACH regulation.

Master in Environmental Pollution and Risk Assessment

The programme will provide deeper knowledge on the spread of environmental pollutants in nature, the effect they have on the environment and how they affect various forms of biological life. Risk assessments are greatly increasing in importance across the entire world.

Master in Materials Physics and Nanotechnology

The Materials Physics and Nanotechnology master's programme covers a wide range of materials used in for example semiconductor technology, optoelectronics and biotechnical applications. Students also study materials used in chemical sensors and biosensors, as well as materials' mechanical applications such as hardness and elasticity.

Master in Chemical Engineering for Energy and the Environment

KTH Royal Institute of Technology

The master programme Chemical Engineering for Energy and the Environment focuses on providing chemical engineering tools for development of efficient and effective use of energy and natural resources. Opportunities for in-depth study of current problem areas are given, often in cooperation with the Swedish industry.

Master in Materials Chemistry and Nanotechnology

Chalmers University of Technology

The purpose of the programme is to provide an engineering education within the materials field where emphasis is on synthesis, chemical characterisation, physical and chemical properties and applications

Master in Nanotechnology

KTH Royal Institute of Technology

Nanotechnology is an emerging field of science/technology dealing with the manufacture and engineering of materials, structures and systems with nano-scale size in at least one dimension. The employment market in nanotechnology is expected to grow significantly in the future although very few companies today are true nanotech-companies or have nanotech-products.

Master in Toxicology

Stockholm University

The Master’s Programme in Toxicology aims to give advanced understanding of how toxic substances affect biological systems at molecular, cellular and organism levels. The programme is multidisciplinary and includes many different subjects that interact with each other.
