Program Overview

The role of the core teaching units (UEF) scheduled in the fifth and sixth semesters is to provide students with specific concepts through lectures and tutorials. These units include:

  • F131 (Semester 5): Study of the chemical reactivity of mono- and polyfunctional organic molecules
  • F132 (Semester 5): Studies the chemical reactivity of heterocyclic compounds
  • F133 (Semester 5): Study of extraction and chromatographic separation methods
  • F134 (Semester 5): Study of electrochemistry concepts and their applications
  • F231 (Semester 6): Studies organic retrosynthesis
  • F232 (Semester 6): Studies spectroscopic techniques and molecular characterization
  • F233 (Semester 6): Study of natural products chemistry
  • F236 (Semester 6): Study of theoretical chemistry applied to chemical reactions

The methodological teaching units (UEM) scheduled in the fifth and sixth semesters aim to introduce students to applied fields such as synthesis, analysis, catalysis, and molecular modeling through practical work. These include:

  • M131 (Semester 5): Separation techniques and chromatography
  • M134 (Semester 5): Organic synthesis
  • M233 (Semester 6): Surface chemistry and catalysis
  • M234 (Semester 6): Molecular modeling

The remaining exploratory teaching units (UED) and cross-disciplinary units (UET) provide general and essential knowledge for organic chemistry graduates:

  • D131 (Semester 5): Organic biochemistry
  • D231 (Semester 6): Industrial organic chemistry
  • UET (Semester 5): Entrepreneurship
  • UET (Semester 6): English language
Teaching Language : French, Arabic

Curriculum Highlights

Core Courses

In the field of Materials Science, the training is spread over four semesters of a common core:

  • First year: Material Sciences field (S1, S2)
  • Second year: Chemistry stream (S3, S4)
  • Third year: Two semesters of specialization in Organic Chemistry (S5, S6)

To obtain this degree, students must rely on the knowledge acquired during the first and second years of the program, particularly in chemistry and organic chemistry.

Therefore, students are expected to have a solid understanding of:

  • Molecular structure
  • Nature of chemical bonds
  • Electronic effects
  • Molecular stereochemistry
  • Nomenclature and reactivity of major organic functional groups (alkanes, haloalkanes, alcohols, amines, carbonyl derivatives, alkenes, alkynes)

In the third year of the undergraduate program, the training is completed by more in-depth and more specialized modules in organic chemistry.

Advanced Topics

The units included in this training aim to provide students with a high-quality set of knowledge necessary for training graduates specialized in organic chemistry. As a result, these graduates can integrate into the industrial or academic field at the Master’s level simply by reusing the knowledge acquired during their Bachelor's degree in organic chemistry.

Admissions Information

To pursue this degree, students need to build on the knowledge acquired during their first and second years, particularly in chemistry and organic chemistry.
