Learn English – Apply to a university to study/for studying..

meaningprepositionstranslation

I'm writing my CV and do not know how to correctly say that:
*

After I graduated from X (//X is a high school), I applied to a
university to study chemistry and also computer systems.

*

I'm not sure about the prepositions and also this should be clear that I studied 2 courses (also got 2 degrees). Thank you

As far as prepositions go,

I apply/applied/am applying to a university to study [subjects].

Alternatively, I completed degrees in [subjects].

Or even, I am interested in studying no prepositions [subjects].

Also, as an American reading a CV, when I hear "course" I think of a single class. One term's worth of study.

I would refer to what you're talking about as either a "course of study", or simply a "degree program".
