Chemistry
Everything around you is chemistry. Even you yourself are chemistry. In this Bachelor’s programme, you will get theoretical knowledge and practical skills to understand the world at a molecular level.
Something for you?
- You will receive a solid, broad scientific grounding, based in theory, but also with lots of lab practicals.
- You participate in groundbreaking research at one of our research groups, for example on new medicines, ultra-sustainable materials or the origin of life.
- Our students rate the easy-going and friendly atmosphere on campus and the close contact with teachers as some of the top reasons to study here.
- On our campus you will have access to research facilities that are unique in the world!
As a Chemistry student you study processes in detail, down to the molecular or even atomic level. To understand molecules or materials, or to create new applications by changing them. In the Chemistry Bachelor's programme, you learn to research the molecular world from both theory and practice. Through theoretical lectures, you study different areas of chemistry, such as organic chemistry, physical chemistry or biochemistry. During the course of your studies you can choose in which direction you want to specialise. In addition, you will learn the mathematical and physical concepts that are important to investigate and predict molecular processes. Because the world on the nanometer scale can only be studied experimentally, you receive extensive training in the practicalities of chemistry. For example, so that you understand the techniques for studying materials - such as lasers or magnetic fields - in detail. And of course an important part of your studies takes place in the lab; through experiments you get to know and study chemical reactions.
Kastu feedback about the program after the visit
- At RU students have to really like to do research, to write and to analyze, because most of the assignments are written.
- RU has free writing classes at which students can attend if they struggle with academic writing (most of the students attends them).
- Students mostly can learn Dutch for free and get 50% discount to learn other languages like Spanish, Chinese or other 15 languages.
- Easy to find a job as a student – lots of shops, bars, restaurants. Student who gave me a tour said all his friends found a job in 2-3 months.
- Pažymių išrašas - jei dar nesi baigęs mokyklos, būtina prisegti pažymių išrašą su paskutinių trijų metų pažymiais (10, 11 ir 12 klasės pirmo pusmečio). 10 klasės vidurkių skiltis gali būti:
- papildomai įtraukta į KASTU pažymių išrašo formą;
- pateikta mokyklos ruoštame išraše;
- galima pateikti pagrindinio išsilavinimo pažymėjimą ir jo oficialų vertimą.
- Brandos atestatas – jei jau esi baigęs mokyklą, anketoje turi prisegti savo Brandos atestatą + Pažymių išrašas su 11kl. vidurkiais.
Pastaba:
- Motyvacinis laiškas yra privalomas dokumentas stojant į šio universiteto programas.
- CV - stojant į visas bakalauro programas reikia pateikti savo CV.
IELTS - 6.0 (arba 6.5, priklausomai nuo programos), iš kiekvienos dalies nemažiau 6.0
TOEFL - 80 (arba 90, priklausomai nuo programos), iš kiekvienos dalies ne mažiau negu 20
TOEFL iBT - 80 (arba 90, priklausomai nuo programos), iš kiekvienos dalies ne mažiau negu 20
- Visų dalykų vidurkiai Brandos Atestate privalo būti aukštesni negu 7. Chemijos, matematikos ir fizikos vidurkiai ne mažesni kaip 8.
- Turi laikyti bent 4 valstybinius egzaminus. Trys iš jų turi būti: chemijos, matematikos ir fizikos. Likęs egzaminas pasirinktinai ir ne mažiau kaip 36 balai.
- Visų žemiau esančių dalykų egzaminai turi būti išlaikyti ne mažiau nei 86 balai ir:
Chemiją turi mokytis A lygiu.
Fiziką turi mokytis A lygiu.
Matematiką turi mokytis A lygiu.
- CV
- Visi, kurie dar nėra pabaigę mokyklos ir į šį universitetą stoja besimokydami 12 klasėje, kartu su pažymių išrašu privalo prisegti Statement of Education. Formą rasi ČIA.
- Visi, kurie yra pabaigę mokyklą ir į šį universitetą stoja jau turėdami Brandos atestatą, kartu su juo - turi pateikti ir pažymių išrašą su 11 klasės metiniais vidurkiais. To reikia, nes universitetas nori matyti paskutinių 2 metų pažymius.
After your studies
As a Chemistry graduate you can get straight down to work after finishing your studies as there is virtually no unemployment among chemists. Companies are constantly seeking young talent and the education sector is in desperate need of teachers. After graduating as a chemist, you can continue doing research at a company or a university. You could also go in another direction, such as obtaining your first-level teaching qualification or work as consultant or manager.
Possible occupations
- Researcher (fundamental or applied) at universities
- Researcher at research institutes and R&D departments at companies
- Teacher in secondary school or higher education
- Manager in technological environment
- Consultant (including in ICT)
