Master Chimie — Chimie

Tuition fees are 289 USD per year.

Chemistry, the subject of the Master Chimie offered at Université Paris Cité in Paris, is the scientific study of matter, its properties, and the reactions that transform one substance into another. As a field of study, chemistry typically spans several subdisciplines, including organic chemistry, which deals with carbon-based compounds; inorganic chemistry, covering metals and non-carbon compounds; physical chemistry, which applies principles of physics to chemical systems; and analytical chemistry, focused on identifying and measuring chemical substances. Students in a chemistry program generally combine laboratory work with theoretical coursework, learning to design experiments, interpret spectroscopic and analytical data, and understand reaction mechanisms at the molecular level. Depending on specialization, the discipline connects to materials science, pharmaceuticals, environmental science, and industrial process chemistry. Graduates with training in chemistry commonly find work in pharmaceutical and chemical companies, environmental and quality-control laboratories, materials and manufacturing industries, or research positions within universities and public research bodies. Some continue toward doctoral study to specialize further in a particular area of chemical research. This is a master's degree, completed over two years, with courses taught in French. The program begins in September and has a yearly tuition of 250 EUR. Students entering a chemistry master's typically hold an undergraduate background in chemistry or a closely related physical science, since the coursework builds on prior training in laboratory technique and chemical theory.
