Get a good impression of what your study programme will look like.
In Applied Science, you explore chemistry and technology through experimentation, collaboration, and learning both theoretically and practically. Through laboratory work, innovative projects, and group assignments, you will develop the skills needed to solve real-world problems.
The programme starts with a broad half-year in which you explore the fields of chemistry and technology. You then choose three modules that match your interests. In the third year, you willdo an internship and follow an in-depth research module linked to our research group. The final year consists of a free elective and a graduation internship.
In the first semester, you’ll build a broad base with subjects like biology, chemistry, technology, mathematics and statistics. You’ll learn safe lab practices and how to handle chemicals and micro-organisms. In the second semester, you get to choose one of the following modules:
Through projects, you get insights into the business world
In the year two, you gain more freedom to choose your own direction by selecting another two modules from the four options. During these modules, you’ll dive deeper into the subjects and build on what you learned in the first semester. You’ll also collaborate with first-year students and engage in exciting projects such as hydrogen production, plastic recycling or the creation and analysis of medicines.
During the first semester of your third year, you will do an internship at a company or organisation of your choice. We have global connections to help you find the right fit in terms of location, company and project.
In the second semester, you will choose an expert module linked to our research group, allowing you to engage in more applied research in collaboration with lecturers and fellow students.
During this semester, you can follow the minor Applied Biomedical Sciences and Engineering or select another minor at Fontys or another (international) educational institution. You can also enroll in a pre-master programme or work on a multidisciplinary project together with students from other disciplines.
Choose a graduation project that suits you at a company, research institute, or hospital of your choice.
