Professional status. Chemist Graduates in Chemical Sciences can enroll, after passing the State Exam pursuant to the provisions of Presidential Decree of 5 June 2001, no. 328, in the professional register of Chemist, and therefore access the exercise of the Profession of Chemist (section A). In addition to the practice of self-employment, the graduate in Chemical Sciences can find employment in sectors such as: • Industry (in sectors such as agri-food, environmental, green chemistry, material chemistry, petrochemical and pharmaceutical chemistry) • Control agencies and laboratories (eg: ARPA, Zooprophylactic Institutes, ATS, Fraud Repression Inspectorate, Customs) • Public and private analysis laboratories (eg: in the sectors of environmental control, analysis in the commodity and / or chemical-clinical field) • Research Centers • Scientific information • Scientific dissemination agencies • The certification companies • Quality control. Graduates may also supplement their training by attending PhD courses, Specialization Courses, training courses for teaching or 2nd level Masters. Graduates who have sufficient credits in appropriate groups of sectors will be able, as required by current legislation, to participate in the admission tests for training courses for secondary education.

Specific learning outcomes The Master degree in Chemical Sciences has the general objective: the integration and consolidation of basic skills achieved in the first cycle in the various fields of chemistry and it offers the opportunity to gain expertise in a specific field of chemistry. The course aims to prepare professionals capable of working in laboratories, facilities, public and private companies, even at the executive level in the following areas: (i) innovation in the synthesis of old and new products, which meets the criteria of efficiency and environmental sustainability imposed by social sensitivity and the stringent European regulations which came into force in 2007; (Ii) the use of the most modern technologies for the structural determination of new molecules; (Iii) identification and use of suitable technologies for analysis in an industrial environment, quality and process control, and in clinical, toxicological, forensic and environmental; (Iv) familiarity with the use of computational techniques. The reformed project degree provides a wide range of training in which the student must choose a set number of credits. Considerable space is dedicated to activities linked to the thesis in which the student tackles a topic of scientific research, and learns to apply the theoretical knowledge acquired. The teaching resources, research facilities and educational services available to the degree course allows the proposal that includes more training in relation to the skills of teachers in specific research areas.
