Bachelor in Licence - Chimie - Parcours Sciences Exactes et Appliquées

Tuition fees are 178 EUR per year.

Chimie, or chemistry, is the study of the composition, structure, properties, and transformations of matter, and this Licence forms part of the Sciences Exactes et Appliquées track at Université de Limoges, based in Limoges, France. Students typically study general, organic, and inorganic chemistry, along with physical chemistry and analytical methods, building a foundation in how chemical reactions occur and how substances are identified, synthesized, and characterized. Mathematics and physics coursework usually accompanies the chemistry curriculum, since quantitative reasoning is central to interpreting chemical data and understanding reaction kinetics or thermodynamics. Laboratory work forms a substantial part of the program, giving students hands-on experience with techniques such as titration, spectroscopy, and chromatography, along with training in laboratory safety and proper handling of chemical substances. As students advance, coursework often becomes more specialized, touching on areas such as materials chemistry, environmental chemistry, or biochemistry, depending on how the applied sciences track is structured at the university. This blend of theoretical study and practical laboratory training is intended to prepare students for further study or for entry-level technical roles that require a solid grounding in chemical principles and methods. Graduates commonly continue toward a master's degree in chemistry, materials science, or a related applied field, while others move into laboratory technician roles in industry, quality control, or research support. This bachelor's program spans three years, is delivered in French, and begins in September. Annual tuition is 178 EUR, consistent with public university tuition in France, with admission generally coordinated through the Parcoursup platform.
