The Physical and Computational Chemistry specialisation sits within the two-year, 120 ECTS Master of Chemistry at the University of Copenhagen. It is taught in English, mainly at North Campus in Copenhagen, and combines theory, advanced spectroscopy and computer-based methods to understand how molecules behave. Teaching moves from specialised elective courses in the first year into a long, research-driven thesis in the second. Students work closely with the Department of Chemistry and learn to plan, run and evaluate complex experimental and computational projects. The programme starts in September, with a February start open only to applicants with a legal right of admission.

| Scope of the program | Graduates of this specialisation are described as being in demand for their spectroscopy and physical chemistry skills in high-tech industry, environmental agencies, consultancies and the biomedical sector. Programming and data-analysis competence also opens doors in IT, finance and banking. More broadly, chemistry graduates work in research, development and analytical laboratories, as advisers, as teachers, in science communication, or as entrepreneurs. The training in managing complex research and development tasks, evaluating chemical methods and discussing the societal and ethical context of results prepares students for these roles, and the thesis provides a natural entry route into research careers. |
