Where does chemistry fit
2007
As a chemistry student at Utrecht University I very much enjoyed student life and chemistry. Sharing the joy of student life with fellow students from a broad range of disciplines was easy, but sharing the beauty of chemistry as a subject was far more difficult. When I told them about chemistry the reaction often was "Oh, how interesting," and then the discussion stopped. I almost envied students in medicine, law, or the social sciences because communication about their field of interest was much easier. The rather abstract and ratio-based approach to chemistry made sharing its beauty with others rather difficult. These experiences certainly influenced my decision to apply my chemical knowledge on sustainable development and education.
