BA/BS in Applied Chemistry

The Major in Applied Chemistry in the Faculty of Science and Engineering at Seikei University pursues chemical research that contributes to the future of people and everyday life. Students explore two main areas: life innovation for health and medicine, and green innovation for a sustainable society. Health research covers biotechnology, chemical biology and food and medical technology, combined with artificial intelligence across disciplines. Green research concerns materials, catalysts and battery technology for carbon reduction and renewable energy. Students begin with chemistry and information in the first year, then study life sciences or environmental engineering, and conduct practical graduation research in the final years. Graduates work in pharmaceuticals, food and cosmetics, chemicals and materials, environment and energy, and precision machinery. Their laboratory research and chemical knowledge suits them to a wide range of professional roles.
