Chemistry experts have a key role in resolving global problems. The doctoral programme in chemistry and molecular sciences (CHEMS) is focused on basic studies in experimental, theoretical and computational chemistry, from small molecules to macromolecules, with research themes involving synthesis, isolation techniques, characterization, analytical methods and spectroscopy.
The programme is organized with collaboration between Department of Chemistry, Department of Physics, Faculty of Pharmacy, and Department of Biosciences at the University of Helsinki.
