A Bachelor's degree, equivalent to a Swedish Kandidatexamen, from an internationally recognised university. Also required is 90 credits in chemistry and biology, of which at least 60 credits must be in chemistry, including 15 credits in biochemistry and 15 credits in organic chemistry.
Proficiency in English equivalent to the Swedish upper secondary course English 6. This requirement can be met either by achieving the required score on an internationally recognised test, or by previous upper secondary or university studies in some countries.
Do you want to be part of groundbreaking research? The Master's Programme in Chemistry with specialisation in Chemical Biology is closely linked to world-leading research and you will have the chance to do your thesis within a broad, dynamic and modern research environment. With courses covering organic molecules and biological macromolecules, you will be well-prepared for a future in biotechnology and drug development. The Master's programme in Chemistry with specialisation in Chemical Biology has been developed in cooperation with world-leading research groups. It is partly taught together with the specialisation in Biochemistry but provides more in-depth advanced aspects of current synthetic chemistry, chemical biology and associated experimental techniques. You will have lecturers who are leading experts in, e.g., organic synthesis, spectroscopy, enzymology, X-ray crystallography, cryo-electron microscopy, systems biology and protein engineering. During the programme, you can expect to: have a personal mentor who helps you prepare for your future career; combine theoretical knowledge and practical skills in organic chemistry, biochemistry and interfacing disciplines such as nanobiotechnology, and drug design; and be a part of a university with two Nobel prizes in chemistry.
