Presentation
In L2 chemistry, there are two possible paths: a generalist path with a core curriculum and a specific and selective PréPAC path (perfumes, flavors, and cosmetics) that prepares students for the ProPAC professional license.

L2 - Chemistry PréPAC
The L2 préPAC corresponds to a course in the second year of the Bachelor's degree in Chemistry at the Faculty of Sciences in Montpellier. This course, which prepares students for the Professional Bachelor's degree in Perfumes, Flavors, and Cosmetics (LproPAC), is highly recommended for those wishing to enroll in the LproPAC.
This course (500 hours of training, minimum 8 weeks of work experience) consists of a common part and a part specific to each option: perfumes and aromas, and cosmetics.
The courses are taught by a dynamic teaching team made up of lecturers and researchers from the Faculty of Science at the University of Montpellier, as well as lecturers and researchers from the Faculty of Pharmacy and various external industry experts.
The number of places available in L2 préPAC is limited to 20 students.
