Chemistry & Pharmacy
Anyone wishing to study chemistry or pharmacy and with an interest in active substances, materials, analytics or biotechnology will find several suitable degree programmes at the University of Innsbruck.
Chemistry and pharmacy are integrated into two main Research Areas at the University of Innsbruck: The Centre for Molecular and Structural Biology (Center for Molecular Biosciences Innsbruck) combines structural and molecular biology, chemistry, biophysics, genetics and pharmaceutical sciences; the Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Materials Science (Functional Materials Science) brings together research groups from four faculties and harnesses the synergies between physics, chemistry, Earth Science, pharmaceutical technology and the Faculty of Engineering Sciences.
