Organisation profile
Academic education and research in chemistry at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel is provided by the Department of Chemistry (DSCH), which is part of the Faculty of Science and Bioengineering. Our department consists of three research groups: the General Chemistry (ALGC), the Organic Chemistry (ORGC) and the Analytical, Environmental and Geochemistry (AMGC). This structure allows us to offer unique undergraduate and two graduate courses in environmental chemistry, organic chemistry and computational chemistry.
