Master's Program in Chemistry

Organic and Natural Materials Chemistry is a discipline that focuses on the study of carbon-containing chemical compounds, which are essential elements in all living things and many synthetically produced molecules. Topics studied include organic molecular structure, physical and chemical properties, chemical bonding, chemical reactions, and various analytical methods to identify and characterize organic compounds. One of the main objectives of this group is to understand in depth the properties and behavior of organic compounds under various conditions, both in the laboratory and in nature. This includes how organic compounds react, interact with the environment, and play a role in various aspects of life, such as the pharmaceutical, fuel, cosmetic, food, and materials industries. Organic compounds have important roles in various application areas, such as the pharmaceutical industry for the development of drugs, the fuel industry for the development of environmentally friendly fuels, and the cosmetics industry for beauty products. The group also focuses on developing efficient, environmentally friendly, and economical methods of synthesizing organic compounds. The development of new materials with desirable properties is also an important concern in this research.

Inorganic Chemistry is a discipline that focuses on the study of the properties, structure, and reactivity of chemical compounds that do not contain carbon, including elements and compounds that are widely found in nature. Topics studied include atomic structure, chemical bonding, the periodic table, inorganic compounds, chemical reactions, and physical and chemical properties of chemical elements. One of the main objectives of this group is to understand in depth the properties and behavior of inorganic chemical compounds under various conditions, both in the laboratory and in natural contexts. This includes an understanding of how inorganic compounds react, interact with the environment, and contribute to various aspects of human life. Inorganic compounds have important roles in various applications, such as industry, agriculture, environment, technology, and health. The group also focuses on developing efficient, environmentally friendly, and economical methods of synthesizing inorganic compounds. A deeper understanding of the properties of inorganic materials also enables the development of new materials that have desirable characteristics for specialized applications, such as fillers in energy technology, catalysts for chemical reactions, or absorbent materials for environmental cleaning.

Analytical Chemistry is a discipline that focuses on the study and development of chemical analysis methods to identify, measure, and separate components in a sample. Topics of study include a variety of analytical techniques, including spectroscopy, chromatography, electrochemistry, and microscopy, used to analyze the structure and chemical properties of samples. The main goal of this group is to understand the nature and content of a sample, both on a macroscopic and microscopic scale. By understanding the composition of a sample, including the elements, compounds, or molecules present in it, we can understand the specific properties and characteristics of a material. This knowledge is essential in many fields, such as medicine for disease diagnosis, environmental science for monitoring water and air quality, the food industry for ensuring product safety, and forensic science for the analysis of criminal evidence. In addition, the group also focuses on developing new chemical analysis methods that are more accurate, fast, and efficient. Innovation in chemical analysis instrument technology is also an important focus to enable the development of more advanced and up-to-date analytical methods.

Materials Chemistry is a discipline that specifically focuses on the synthesis, characterization, and development of new materials with specific properties for applications in various industries. The main focus of this group is to understand the structural and compositional properties of materials and how these affect the desired functional properties. In an effort to produce materials that meet the needs of specific applications, techniques are developed to control and optimize the properties of these materials. The importance of research in materials chemistry is indisputable given the central role of materials in various modern technologies. The development of new materials or the improvement of existing materials has direct implications for many industrial sectors, including energy, transportation, health, electronics, and the environment. For example, research in materials chemistry could lead to the development of more efficient solar cells, more active catalysts, more sensitive sensors, or longer-lasting batteries. The main goal of the group is to create efficient, sustainable, and reliable materials for use in various technological applications. This includes considering aspects such as durability, energy efficiency, conductivity, and adaptability to different environments.

Biochemistry is a subfield of science that focuses on the study of chemical compounds and chemical reactions that occur in biological systems, from the molecular level to the organismal level. The main focus of the group is to understand the structure and function of biomolecules, including proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates, as well as the metabolic processes, genetic regulation, and cellular signaling involved in an organism's life. Research in deep biochemistry enables a better understanding of how biomolecules work together in biological systems. This includes studying how biomolecules interact and contribute to life processes such as reproduction, growth, and response to the environment. This research also identifies changes or dysfunctions at the molecular level that may contribute to human disease and health disorders. The main goal of the group is to understand the fundamentals of biochemistry, identify and explore the relationship between the structure of biomolecules and their biological functions, and apply this knowledge to drive progress in a variety of areas, including drug development, disease prevention, and the improvement of human health.
