Chemistry

The Leiden Institute of Chemistry organises two MSc programs: MSc Chemistry and MSc Life Science & Technology and participates in three Graduate Schools

  • NIOK Graduate Program “Solar Fuels Catalysis”

  • Netherlands Research School of Chemical Biology

  • HRSMC Graduate Program “Sustainability: the Molecular Approach”

The Master’s programme of Chemistry consists of the following specialisations:

  • Research in Chemistry

  • Chemistry and Education

  • Chemistry and Science-Based Business

  • Chemistry and Communication
