Since the discovery of fire during prehistoric times human beings have never ceased to be interested in matter, its properties and its natural or self-induced changes.

Named "chemists" today, specialists in the reactivity of matter pursue the art of experimentation and discovery. The products of their essential knowledge are applied in the fields of nutrition, health, hygiene, transport, sport, construction and environmental protection.

Un des aspects très positifs de la formation en chimie à l’UNamur, c’est l’importance des travaux pratiques (TP). Ils permettent d’approfondir la théorie vue au cours, d’en faciliter l’apprentissage et de mettre en évidence des cas concrets. De nombreux TP sont réalisés en binôme Cela permet de s’entraider sur les sujets plus complexes ou lors de certaines manipulations.
