Singapore is one of the leading chemical hubs in the world, with over 100 global chemical firms having major operations here. According to the government’s Energy & Chemicals Industry Transformation Map, this industry is expected to grow and generate $12.7 billion in value-addedness. About 1,400 new jobs will be created by 2025 through the adoption of advanced manufacturing technologies particularly in the key areas of petrochemicals and specialty chemicals. Furthermore, the chemical industry in the ASEAN region, China and India, will continue to grow at a real rate of 1–3%. The advanced chemistry sector relating to novel materials, biomedical and biotechnology will likely enjoy even stronger growth. Therefore, there will be sustained robust demand for a Master degree rooted in the fundamental chemical sciences in both the local and wider regional markets.

This programme is designed for chemistry graduates who would like to pursue a postgraduate degree in Chemistry. This programme lays the scientific foundation in chemistry for attendees for senior positions in the chemistry industry as well as to qualify for other advanced degree programmes such as Ph.D. in Chemistry. At the end of the programme, the student will be equipped with advanced knowledge and skills pertaining to recent developments in the Chemical Science which will enable him/her to perform with confidence leading roles as scientists, managers and entrepreneurs in Chemistry R&D and related industries.
