As a student of the Master’s in Chemical Science & Engineering with the specialisation in Molecules & Organics Materials, you will be taught by leading professors in the field of materials and molecular chemistry. Moreover, you will have the opportunity to contribute to high-end research yourself. In the second year of your Master’s, you will join a research group and complete your master’s thesis there.
Do you want to know which groups you could join within this specialisation? Below you can find a selection of some of the related research groups and the research they are conducting.
Biomaterials Science and Technology (BST) The Biomaterials Science and Technology (BST) group conducts research on (resorbable) polymeric materials and structures for use in medical devices and in the delivery of relevant biologically active compounds, (bio)artificial organs, cell-material interactions and tissue engineering.
Biomolecular Nanotechnology (BNT) The Biomolecular NanoTechnology (BNT) group aims to understand some of the basic principles driving the formation of nano-sized objects and nano-structured materials created by nature in the course of evolution.
The Film in Fluids (FIF) group focuses on three main interrelated research themes: thin films synthesis, in-situ membrane (film) characterization, inorganic hollow fibres.
Molecular Nanofabrication (MNF) The Molecular Nanofabrication (MNF) group uses techniques such as microcontact printing, (dip-pen) lithography and macromolecular chemistry to build larger 2D and 3D structures with novel surface properties.
Photocatalytic Synthesis (PCS) The research activities of the PhotoCatalytic Synthesis (PCS) group target the development of innovative materials and concepts to produce high-efficiency photocatalytic reactions.
Sustainable Polymer Chemistry (SPC) The Sustainable Polymer Chemistry (SPC) group focuses on the development of new sustainable polymeric materials, with a main focus on novel (bio)degradable and chemically modified biobased materials, primarily based on phosphorus-containing polymers or biopolymers, such as starch, cellulose, or lignin.
