Chemistry is a fast-evolving basic science, with strong connections to any aspect of human life, environment, nature, and technological development. Chemistry research activities involve planning, developing, and investigating cutting-edge processes and materials impacting on both basic knowledge and industrial applications. Chemistry plays a key role in moving forward to healthier societies and sustainable development, by reducing the impact and increasing the efficiency of industrial processes (green chemistry), decreasing consumption of resources and wastes (circular economy), and fostering the use of renewable energy.
The Bachelor’s Degree in Chemistry and Industrial Chemistry belongs to the L-27 class (Chemical Sciences and Technologies). As required by the rules of this class, the fundamental and characterizing courses of the educational plan offer the students theoretical, methodological and applied knowledge and skills in the four fundamental areas of chemistry (Analytical chemistry, Physical chemistry, Inorganic chemistry, Organic chemistry), as well as in Biochemistry and Polymers chemistry and technology. This knowledge is corroborated by an adequate preparation in Mathematics and Physics. Moreover, the educational plan enables the students to individually build up part of their career, privileging their cultural and professional interests, by means of electives. The latter aim to deepen the knowledge in one of the fundamental areas of Chemistry or to acquire transversal professionalizing skills. The students complete their career with the curricular traineeship, carrying out an experimental activity on a chemistry-related topic.
The educational plan provides the Bachelor’s laureates with a solid and versatile preparation, adequate to face the challenges characterizing the different fields of Chemistry and to meet the expectations of the labor market, with the duties and responsibilities of a Junior Chemist. The laureates can apply to the examination to be admitted as Junior Chemists to the professional register of the National Federation of Chemist and Physicist Practitioners (Federazione Nazionale degli Ordini dei Chimici e dei Fisici).
The Bachelor’s laureates in Chemistry and Industrial Chemistry can attend Master’s Degrees in Chemistry and related fields.
Lessons are held in Italian.
For the 2025/2026 academic year, enrollment in the Degree Course in Chemistry and Industrial Chemistry is open to all.
Initial preparation verification methods
The Ministerial Decree 270/2004 requires a mandatory assessment of the initial preparation of students enrolling in a L-27 degree program. For enrollment in the open-access degree program in Chemistry and Industrial Chemistry, the test is not selective but must be taken, even if unsuccessful, by November 27, 2025. The Degree Program in Chemistry and Industrial Chemistry adheres to the Coordination of Knowledge Assessment Tests for Science Degree Programs, managed by the National Conference of Presidents and Directors of University Structures of Science and Technology (con.Scienze) in collaboration with the National Plan for Scientific Degrees (PLS) of the Ministry of University and Research and the Inter-university Consortium of Integrated Access Systems (CISIA). Therefore, the Degree Program adopts the TOLC-S (CISIA Online Test, in TOLC@Casa mode) as a test to assess the initial preparation. Students can take the test to assess their initial preparation even before enrolling and/or at another university in Italy. In this case, the test result will be credited after completing the enrollment, upon presentation of the relevant certification issued by CISIA. The test is considered passed if the student correctly answers at least 10 of the 20 questions in the Basic Mathematics module. If the student fails to pass the test by November 27, 2025, he/she will be assigned an Additional Learning Requirement (OFA) to be completed by September 30, 2026. Students with OFA requirements will be provided with materials in the e-learning area to help them complete the exam. Regular enrollment in the second year of the course is subject to the following requirements: · Taking the TOLC-S to assess the initial preparation at least once by November 27, 2025, even if not passed, as it is mandatory; · Completion of the OFA, if assigned, by meeting one of the following requirements by September 30, 2026: ◦ Passing the initial preparation test; ◦ Passing a test specifically prepared by the teachers in Basic Mathematics; ◦ Passing the Mathematics 1 exam, a course scheduled in the first semester of the first year of the program.
If you are a EU National, you may stay in Italy for as long as you like: you only need a passport or ID card.If you are a NON-EU National, you'll have to carry out some formalities.
