Course description

Chemistry is undeniably a captivating science, essential for a progressive future. In research laboratories, it plays a crucial role in developing new materials and substances that serve as our invisible daily helpers. Chemical reactions occur in both the living (biotic) and non-living (abiotic) worlds. The ability to transfer knowledge from nature into research and development continually inspires scientists globally. Chemistry offers a wealth of perspectives and professional diversity. It is vital for the sustainable development of our society. Key areas include the production, conversion, and storage of energy, which are critical issues for both current and future generations.
