Master’s Degree in Industrial Chemistry Science and Technology

The Master's Degree in Industrial Chemistry Science and Technology is a two-year course of the University of Naples Federico II, offered by the Department of Chemical Sciences. The programme provides advanced training that integrates fundamental chemical knowledge with specific skills in the synthesis and characterisation of materials, and aims to prepare chemists able to work in industry and applied research. Industrial chemistry underlies many productions, from polymers to formulated products, and today must meet requirements of sustainability and efficiency. The course combines advanced basic training with applied skills in synthesis, characterisation and processes, so as to prepare chemists able to work in the laboratory and in production plants.

The first year provides for three curricula: Products and Processes, Polymer Science and Industrial Formulations. The second year is devoted to the thesis. The course takes place in person in Naples and lasts two years; the language is not stated and is presumed to be Italian. The page notes European recognition through the Chemistry EUROMASTER Label and mentions agreements with national and international bodies and companies for external practical experience. The credits are not given. The three curricula of the first year, Products and Processes, Polymer Science and Industrial Formulations, make it possible to choose an area of specialisation. The second year, devoted to the thesis, is an opportunity to work on a research project, including in collaboration with bodies and companies. The Chemistry EUROMASTER label indicates European recognition of the course, but its effects must be checked.

The aim is to develop skills for industrial research, for the development of innovative materials and for sustainable chemical processes. The career opportunities indicated include chemical, biotechnology, environmental and materials industries, research and development centres, analytical laboratories and environmental control agencies. The course is aimed at graduates in chemical or related disciplines. The page does not specify the degree classes accepted or the credits required and does not give the price, start date, selection, places and scholarships, which must be checked in the university's official call for applications. The career opportunities include chemical, biotechnology, environmental and materials industries, research and development centres, analytical laboratories and environmental control agencies. The agreements with national and international bodies and companies foster practical experience. Costs, deadlines, places and curricular requirements are not given and must be checked with the Department of Chemical Sciences.
