Programme profile
Rapid technological advances and the advent of Industry 4.0 mean that today’s chemical industry professionals require additional skills. An in-depth knowledge of chemistry is still essential, but employers also expect expertise in process analysis and process management due to the wider application of networked IT systems.
Chemometrics and related computer-assisted analysis of large volumes of data (big data analysis) are becoming key aspects of quality assurance and online process optimisation (online analytics). In the pharmaceuticals industry, API synthesis, in silico studies and molecular modelling are crucial for efficient drug design.
The Applied Chemistry degree programme is a direct response to the changing skills profile of chemical industry professionals and satisfies the new requirements faced by the industry by means of practical training.
By linking specialist fields of chemistry with computer-based methods, students acquire the competences for which industry demand will be stronger in the future
