Explore matter and molecules! Study chemistry and biomolecular sciences to uncover how life and materials work at the atomic and molecular level.

Chemistry comprises many specialized fields and interacts with all other areas of science. It is a central science of vital importance to mankind. Theoretical chemistry is closely linked with mathematics and physics. Inorganic chemistry has close ties with heterogeneous catalysis, material science and geology. Organic chemistry extends into the fields of biochemistry, immunology, pharmacology and biology.
