Master's Degree in Chemistry

Master's Degree in Chemistry

The Master's Degree aims, on the one hand, to complement the training of future chemists who have completed Bachelor's or Graduate studies, and on the other, to introduce them to research activity by providing them with knowledge, skills and abilities related to Chemistry and linked to the new demands and requirements of a globalized market. Once the Master's Degree has been completed, the student will have a wealth of knowledge and experience that will facilitate their entry into the field of research or their insertion into the world of work. Students who graduate from this Master's Degree will be able to access the preparation, presentation and defense of their Doctoral Thesis, in order to obtain the title of Doctor from the University of La Laguna, as more than sixty doctoral students have already done in the last five years.

General information

  • Credits: 60 ECTS
  • Duration: 1 year
  • Type of teaching: In person
  • Guy: Interdepartmental
  • Location:
    • Chemistry Section. Faculty of Sciences
  • Academic direction:
  • 2) Get started in research in Chemistry.
  • 1) To train highly qualified professionals, capable of developing their professional work in the various branches and fields of Chemistry
  • The Chemistry Department of the University of La Laguna has traditionally been worthy of wide national and international recognition. Its researchers enjoy a renowned prestige and develop research projects in both national and European calls. Chemistry is a basic scientific discipline that has played and continues to play a fundamental role in the progress of humanity. Advancement in any science is linked to the efforts made in research by people who have advanced and rigorous training. The objectives of the Master in Chemistry are:
  • Students who wish to enter must have a scientific-technical profile with extensive knowledge of Chemistry.
  • The recommended entry profile for the Master's Degree in Chemistry coincides with that of graduates of the Bachelor's/Graduate degrees in Chemistry, Pharmacy, Environmental Sciences, Chemical Engineering and Chemical Engineering. These students have the previous educational level required for access to the Master's Degree, and it is not necessary to complete additional training.
  • For other related qualifications, the Academic Committee will study each application individually and may, where appropriate, require the completion of additional training courses that guarantee the student has the minimum knowledge of Chemistry necessary to successfully complete the master's studies.

You can consult the teaching staff who teach in the degree and their brief teaching, research and professional curriculum vitae through the following link:

In addition, linked to the teaching guides for each subject, you can also access the brief curriculum vitae of the responsible teaching staff:

  • The Master's degree is essential to provide our students with advanced training in all fields of chemistry that introduces them to the field of chemical research, placing them in an optimal theoretical-practical position to carry out research work that will lead them to the completion of their Doctoral Thesis, or to their incorporation into R&D&I Departments of public or private organizations, or in the purely professional field, enabling their incorporation as highly qualified personal and technical professionals in companies in the chemical, pharmaceutical, food or environmental sectors.

The planning and mobility management resources provided by the University of La Laguna itself will be used.
