Macromolecular Materials

As a student in the master's programme in Macromolecular Materials, you will learn about the design, synthesis, characterisation, production and development of polymer and fibre-based materials. You will acquire the knowledge and skills to manage the selection of raw materials (renewable versus fossil), choice of production processes, material combinations and manufacturing methods to achieve the desired characteristics of the finished product. We greatly emphasise environmental issues, such as environmentally-friendly material production and the development of sustainable materials.The programme provides a solid base in the chemistry and physics of organic materials, as well as their connection to real-life applications. The broad range of courses gives you a generalist’s knowledge and at the same time allows you to customise your degree profile to focus on your areas of interest. The programme also establishes excellent laboratory skills and is closely linked to research at the Department of Fibre and Polymer Technology. Throughout the courses, you’ll also develop skills in problem-solving, teamwork, and oral and written presentations.This is a two-year programme (120 ECTS credits) in English. Graduates are awarded the degree of Master of Science. The programme is mainly offered at the KTH Campus in Stockholm by the School of Engineering Sciences in Chemistry, Biotechnology and Health (at KTH).
