4.30 University of Oulu, Organic Chemistry
Overview
The Division of Organic Chemistry belongs to the UO Department of Chemistry. 
The unit has a staff of two professors (one professor only temporarily assigned since 
about 10 years), one lecturer, one senior assistant and no postdoctoral researchers. On 
average, there have been 4–5 postgraduate students a year, which increased to 7–8 
towards the end of the review period. The funding of the unit amounts to 
approximately 75 per cent core funding and 25 per cent external funding. The 
proportion of external funding is quite small. The unit is involved in a substantial 
amount of undergraduate teaching to chemistry students, a majority of whom later 
switch to study medicine.
