Study at Department of Chemistry - Ångström Laboratory
Together with the Department of Chemistry for Life Sciences at the Biomedical Centre (BMC), we offer some of Sweden's best courses in chemistry. We are responsible for courses in chemistry at general and advanced level as well as the Master's programme in battery technology and energy storage. The department offers postgraduate education in physical chemistry, polymer chemistry and inorganic chemistry. We collaborate with the industry and accept industrial PhD students who does part of their training at the companies. We welcome ex-jobbers at Bachelor's and Master's level as well as exchange students who want to do project work.
