Advanced Molecular Chemistry Course

The AMC course is an international undergraduate course in chemistry. It was established in 2011 under Global 30 Future Global Leadership program of Tohoku University. It is a fundamental chemistry course with an emphasis on materials science. The curriculum of the course offers students education and research training in organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry, polymer chemistry, biochemistry, and materials chemistry. The AMC course is designed to train future leaders in the field of materials science, which is playing an increasing role in the development of new technologies. In particular, the AMC course gives skills needed for identifying and solving research problems within science and technology. Lectures and laboratory classes are taught by faculty members in the Department of Chemistry and affiliated materials research institutes (IMR and IMRAM). The international character of the AMC course and its comprehensive curriculum will prepare students for global leadership roles in both academia and industry.
