New Master Program for 2025 School Year
The Frontiers in Chemistry Master’s Program results from the creation of Université Paris Cité. The molecular Chemistry towards Life’ sciences developed on the campus Saint-Germain-de-Prés answers to the physical chemistry oriented towards nanoscience, surfaces and energy developed on the Campus des Grands Moulins…. The Master’s program is supported by high-level research laboratories with international reputation and network.
The main objective of the first year is to provide students with a strong background in the various aspects of molecular chemistry, physical chemistry and reactivity at the interfaces with materials, surface and life sciences. Theoretical knowledge acquired through tutoring and analysis of scientific articles is complemented by a 2 to 5 months internship. Through the choice of optional courses, students can prepare their second-year specialization. The second year of the Master is intended to specialize students’ capacities in electrochemistry, spectroscopies, environmental chemistry or molecular chemistry. Students must choose among four tracks, two optional teaching units and will perform a 6 months internship to complete the Master’s Degree.

This course has two specific objectives: (i) to introduce the key fundamental concepts required to understand and study the heterogeneous processes involving electron transfers and (ii) to introduce some of the main techniques used in the field of molecular electrochemistry (iii) to introduce some of the main contemporary applications of the electrochemistry in the fields of synthesis, energy materials and catalysis.
Part 1 (12 h) : After a short review about the main physicochemical properties of charged interfaces, the different processes associated to charge transfer reactions to an electrode, as well as the way to study them, will be detailed. The course will provide students with solid theoretical skills in the following topics:
- Thermodynamics of an electrochemical cell
- Solution transport processes
- Introduction to electrochemical kinetics
- Electrochemical methods (chronoamperometry, rotating disk electrode, cyclic voltammetry).
Part 2 (6 h): The purpose of this second part will be to give an overview of some important applications of electrochemistry, related to synthesis (redox economy, biomass valorization, …) on one hand and to processes aiming at solving energy challenges on the other hand (electrochemical storage of renewable energies, solar fuels). It will be completed by one or two seminars given by researchers from the industry or academic institutions.
Practicals (2 x 3 h = 6 h) The practical work sessions will focus on the use of cyclic voltammetry for the analysis of electrochemical and electrocatalytic processes involving the electrode material or a molecular species.

Course supervisor:
- V. Noel
Goals: The aim is to introduce Master 2 students to research projects and to strengthen their soft skills related to collaborative work.
Description:
This course will be divided into two parts. The first part will be taught under a classical form (lectures, seminars) allowing students to acquire the necessary knowledge to successfully carry out the second part, were they will be asked to work independently to build their own collaborative research project.
Part 1: In an initial stage, the main research funding agencies (public and private) will be presented; the structure and management of collaborative research projects (timetables, milestones, deliverables…) will be also described. Several scientific experts will give seminars allowing grasping the contemporary trends and stakes of the discipline (chemistry and big data, the chemical industry 2.0, the chemistry at the interfaces…).
Part 2: In a second phase, students will be divided into groups of 3 to 4 people constituting a team. Several teams will be associated to form a consortium whose mission is to build a collaborative research project of a European type (FET-OPEN or RIA). Each consortium will have to structure, budget and justify its project using the planning tools and the ad-hoc methods.
Acquired skills:
- Analysis and summary skills of the scientific production in a given field (publications, patents)
- Ability to develop a creative approach to solve a scientific problem
- Team building, Integration into a working team and ability to be a source of propositions
- Capacity to present the results under different forms (oral presentations, written reports…)

Goals: The aim is to introduce Master 2 students to project research and to strengthen their soft skills related to collaborative work.
Description:
Ce cours s’inscrit dans la continuité de l’UE “Research Project 1”.
Students will be divided into groups of 3 to 4 people constituting a team. Several teams will be associated to form a consortium whose mission is to build a collaborative research project of a European type (FET-OPEN or RIA). Each consortium will have to defend its research project in front of a panel (students + teachers), i.e. to justify the project structure, budget, expected timetable as well as the scientific and technological proposed approaches.
Acquired skills: Communication skills such as articulating ideas, clarity and concision in argues description, public speaking…
