Admission for students holding a Flemish degree
(Bio)Organic and Polymer Chemistry focuses on molecules: how to synthesize and understand them, how to adapt them and use them for biological applications, and how to bring them together to form macromolecular entities and polymers. We start with experimental and analytical organic chemistry (carbon chemistry), with a focus on the latest developments and techniques, and move to modified DNA and renewable or “smart” plastic materials. (Bio)Organic and Polymer Chemistry prepares you for a career in the fine chemicals industry, in the pharma and life science industry, or in the polymer industry.
