At the Faculty of Science of Utrecht University, we are passionate about understanding how the world works. We encourage the exchange of ideas and insights among our community members to address global challenges in science.
We get a thrill out of advancing fundamental knowledge based on our work across six departments: Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Information and Computing Sciences, and Pharmaceutical Sciences. No matter how tough the questions, colleagues and professional support are always near, as well as our world-class infrastructure. With interdisciplinary research and inspiring education we bring future innovations closer. Due to our growth we welcomed 414 new colleagues in 2022. These are our current job openings.
How we are working towards a better world
Research infrastructure
The renewed Electron Microscopy Centre (EMC) of Utrecht University was officially opened. Robbert Dijkgraaf, Minister of Education, Culture and Science, and Isabel Arends, Dean of the Faculty of Science, did so with the symbolic push of a button. The centre, which houses electron microscopes that are among the most advanced in the world, brings together a wide variety of scientific disciplines, both in life sciences and material sciences.
