Introduction
The Master’s degree program introduces the fundamental concepts of “data-driven chemistry”: statistical learning, chemometrics, and design of experiments. These concepts will be contextualized within the broader context of a Master’s degree program in Chemistry. The fundamental areas where data-driven approaches are most applicable include the collection of chemical data, the synthesis and design of materials and catalysts, the design of synthetic strategies, and the modeling and study of complex chemical systems.
