Full-time academic programmes
Life-long learning
English
French

Course supported by the internationally renowned research potential embodied by the laboratories of University Paris-Saclay and the instrumental facilities located nearby.
Emphasis is given on the personalization of the Master's program (M1 + M2), since students do choose not only their research topics and teams (internship), but also all 3rd semester teaching units (1st semester M2) from a panel of around fifteen or so subjects in inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry, theoretical chemistry theoretical chemistry and solid state chemistry. The course also aims at developping students' ability to conduct research projects, gain experience in teamwork and pass on their knowledge and know-how.
The notions of innovation and creation will also be combined with those of law and intellectual property as part of a cross-disciplinary skills unit.

Informations

Présentation

Skills

Prepare for the profession of researcher in the fields of inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry and solid-state chemistry.

Objectives

The aim of this program is to provide the knowledge required for an in-depth understanding of complex molecular systems, whether synthetic or of biological origin, molecular-based materials and nano-objects, in order to meet current challenges in the fields of health, energy, environment and information. In this Master 2 program, the following issues will be addressed:
(i) synthesis concepts, physical and chemical properties, and spectroscopic and imaging characterizations of inorganic systems at different scales,
(ii) understanding and modeling molecular properties (structure, spectroscopies, kinetics, dynamics, thermodynamics, reactivity), with particular emphasis on exploiting the synergy between theory & simulations and experiments,
(iii) manipulation of chemical and physico-chemical phenomena on small time and/or space scales.
