The Ph.D. in Radiochemistry at Lanzhou University is a research-oriented doctoral program offered within the first-level discipline of Nuclear Science and Technology through the School of Nuclear Science and Technology. Radiochemistry is a key sub-discipline under this field and has a long academic tradition at Lanzhou University, where it serves as an important foundational subject for nuclear science education and research. The program focuses on the chemical properties, behavior, transformation and separation of radioactive elements, and explores both fundamental and applied aspects of how radioactive substances interact with environments and engineered systems. Radiochemistry research spans areas such as radiochemical analysis, nuclear materials chemistry, environmental radiochemistry, isotope separation and radiopharmaceutical chemistry, combining theoretical understanding with advanced experimental techniques in laboratories equipped for low-background and nuclear-related research. Doctoral candidates undertake original, independent research under expert supervision, contributing new scientific knowledge and technological innovations in radiochemical science applicable to nuclear energy, environmental safety, medical isotope development, nuclear fuel cycle processes, and radiation detection and measurement. Graduates are prepared for careers in academic research, national laboratories, nuclear industry R&D, environmental protection agencies, and sectors where expertise in radioactive chemical phenomena and technologies is essential.
