Introduction

Chemistry is experimenting, researching and analysing. Do you want to make sure diseases are no longer life-threatening or do you solve murder cases based on DNA analysis? Do you want to create a better world? Then choose the Chemistry degree programme.

From wastewater to medicines and plastics

You research the composition of substances and products and can analyse them down to the last molecule. From wastewater to medicines and plastics. For example, when suspicion arises that the groundwater has been contaminated, you can investigate whether this is actually the case.

Contributing to a better world

In addition to your investigative attitude, you are curious and like to come up with new plans. Would you like to work as a chemical researcher in industry, education or a research institute? The HZ Chemistry study programme will train you to become an analytical and accurate researcher who is able to contribute to a better world.

Study tracks

This programme offers 2 different study tracks:

Life Sciences

Understanding human diseases such as cancer, metabolic disorders, autoimmunity and infectious diseases at the level of cells and their molecules seems more important than ever. This knowledge enables researchers to develop new drugs, vaccines and other treatment strategies. And ensures that they can thoroughly cover technical principles such as recombinant DNA technology, bioinformatics and cell culture. You will gain practical experience in the laboratory with important techniques such as immunological tests, biochemical analyses and genetic screening. You will also become acquainted with the ethical and technical challenges that this type of research faces.

Applied Chemistry

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), drawn up by the UN, are guidelines for a sustainable world in which we make better use of scarce resources. These goals can only be achieved if we fully improve the process from raw material to product and vice versa. In this study route, you will learn to conduct practice-oriented research. You will use advanced analytical techniques to answer your research questions. Consider, for example, making biodegradable plastics that can be easily recycled. Experts from large multinationals and market leaders in their respective fields, share their experience with you by providing guest lectures. You work with other students on regional projects related to the marine environment that benefit the province of Zeeland.
