Chemical Science (ChemS)
Aims and Scope
The KAUST Chemical Sciences (ChemS) program was established in 2010 to provide a modern, research-oriented education in chemistry. It is one of the top internationally ranked programs at KAUST. Leveraging the outstanding facilities at KAUST, the program distinguishes itself by a clear focus and strong emphasis on current research challenges related to catalysis and materials.
Within these two main interdisciplinary research thrusts, the following distinct research orientations are currently addressed:
| Materials |
Catalysis |
| Micro- and mesoporous materials |
Hetero- and homogeneous catalysis |
| Metal-organic material |
Biocatalysis |
| Polymeric and Supramolecular material |
Photo- and electro catalysis |
| Computation and modeling |
Computation and modeling |
