Opportunities
Chemistry occupies a key position in the sciences, between biology and physics. As chemists' training is versatile, they can be found in a wide range of industrial sectors, such as the polymer, ceramics and pharmaceutical industries; in public and private analytical laboratories; in technical sales and quality control functions in the many companies active in the chemical industry.
Last but not least, the advanced training provided by a Master's degree in chemistry enables them to take up research and development positions in industry.
