General Description
The Department of Chemistry was founded in 1983. In the Department, around 30 academic staff is present including 13 professors, 7 associate professors, 2 assistant professors, 3 Dr Research Asistant,and 1 research assistants. MSc program takes between two to three years to complete. Graduates with any BSc degree meeting U.Ü Postgraduate Education requirements specified in the regulation can enter one of the MSc programmes in Chemistry (e.g. Analytical Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry and Biochemistry). Candidates who can prepare and defend a thesis successfully obtain a degree of Master of Science (MSc) in Chemistry. As part of our mission we aim to train postgraduates (MSc) that have the capacity to use project related knowledge and skills effectively for research and to lead the transformation of science and technology for the benefit of society.
The MSc in Chemistry degree is based on 120 ECTS credits of achievement.
