Profile
The aim of the Master’s education is to support you to become an independent expert who can evaluate information critically, plan and execute research projects to find new knowledge, and to solve scientific and technological problems independently and as a part of a group.In the University of Turku the research in Materials chemistry consists of fundamental research of material properties as well as that of interfaces, surfaces, and nanostructures from chemical point of view. Applied research focusses on functionalised organic electronics, luminescent materials and porous carriers as well as nanotechnology, detection technology, energy storage and conversion.Materials Chemistry give you an ability to understand and to develop the properties of materials from molecules and nanoparticles via metals, magnetic and semiconducting compounds for pharmaceutical and biomaterial applications. After graduation, you will be familiar with the current methodologies, research equipment and modern numerical methods needed to model properties of materials used in research and technology.In the materials chemistry program you can choose your major from four different fields: Applied materials chemistry, Fundamental materials chemistry, Coordination chemistry or Applied Luminescence materials. One obligatory module consists of courses presenting the basics of functional, hybrid, and composite materials. It is an introduction to different experimental techniques used in materials characterisation. You will also be trained in using advanced instrumentation as different FTIR techniques, Fluorescence, UV-Vis- and Raman spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, electrochemical techniques. The practical laboratory project of the other obligatory model offers training in producing materials for potential use in different applications as solar cells, supercapacitors, sensors and actuators.
