It can also be taken as a second subject in vocational education degree course. Chemistry is all around us and important for all: Modern materials, innovative medicine or sustainable environmental protection are unthinkable without the contribution of chemistry. There are many attractive occupations in the chemical industry. And good chemistry lessons have the potential not only to inspire students for the subject, but also to arouse lasting interest in chemistry.
