Studying Chemistry

Why study Chemistry at UZH?

University of Zurich, Science Campus Irchel

Chemistry has a long tradition at the University of Zurich. Already in 1833 the first professorship for chemistry was established and a curriculum of chemistry was introduced.

Today there are 9 female and 13 male full professors teaching at the Department of Chemistry. They are supported by several assistant professors and teaching assistants. Together they guarantee an optimal education in excellently equipped labs.

In 2015 the Major / Minor System was introduced. This means that a major in Chemistry can easily be combined with a minor in another Science subject or with any other subject offered at UZH.

The first two years of the basic studies of Chemistry and Biochemistry are identical. After the first two years students have to choose between Chemistry and Biochemistry as their main subject.
