CHEMARTS in brief
CHEMARTS is an interdisciplinary minor program, organized jointly by the Aalto School of Chemical Engineering (CHEM) and the Aalto School of Arts, Design and Architecture (ARTS).
The main objectives of the CHEMARTS minor are to inspire students with varying backgrounds to explore biomaterials together, and to create new concepts for the sustainable use of cellulose and other wood-based materials. The minor combines scientific materials research with creative practices and design thinking. The approach is experimental and student-driven.
Learning outcomes
After completing CHEMARTS minor students understand the basics of scientific materials research related to biomaterials. They are familiar with the most common working methods used in materials research and design practice. Students work mainly in teams and experience the strengths and challenges of interdisciplinary collaboration, and they understand how to apply the knowledge to their forthcoming projects. Students know how to follow the latest developments of biomaterials related research and business.
Structure of the minor
鈥楶lant Biomass鈥 and 鈥楧esign Meets Biomaterials鈥 are introductory courses that are offered in the autumn and spring semesters, respectively. After finalizing at least one of the introductory courses, students can continue with the more advanced courses 鈥楥HEMARTS Summer School 2.0鈥 and/or 鈥楥HEMARTS Project鈥. Students can do their CHEMARTS project in the autumn or spring term or during summer. Students may form the minor with any combination of these courses if they form together at least 15 cr.
