Master in C.M.I - Cursus Master en Ingénierie - Chimie

At Université de Poitiers, tuition is 250 EUR per year.

Cursus Master en Ingénierie (CMI) - Chimie, offered at Université de Poitiers, applies the CMI framework's reinforced curriculum to Chemistry. The discipline covers the composition, structure, properties, and transformation of matter, spanning organic, inorganic, physical, and analytical chemistry, along with laboratory techniques for synthesis, purification, and characterization of chemical compounds. Typical coursework includes reaction mechanisms, thermodynamics, spectroscopy and other analytical methods, and increasingly, coursework oriented toward materials science, environmental chemistry, or the chemistry underlying pharmaceutical and industrial processes. Chemistry programs generally combine substantial laboratory work, where students learn to safely handle reagents and instruments and to document experimental procedures and results, with theoretical coursework building a mathematical and physical understanding of chemical behavior. Career paths for chemistry graduates include work in industrial and pharmaceutical laboratories, quality control and analysis, materials development, environmental testing, and further specialization through graduate research in fields such as organic synthesis, chemical engineering, or materials science. The reinforced CMI structure typically adds project-based and research-oriented components on top of the standard chemistry curriculum, preparing students for engineering or research roles that combine strong scientific fundamentals with practical project experience. This program is classified at the master's degree level, runs over two years, and is taught in French at Université de Poitiers, located in the city of Poitiers in western France. Yearly tuition is 250 EUR. Admission to this CMI track involves selection tests, meaning candidates are evaluated before being accepted rather than admitted automatically, consistent with the more selective nature of the Cursus Master en Ingénierie pathway.
