Delivered by one of the UK’s top Chemistry departments, ranked highly for both teaching and research, our BSc and MChem degrees provide a comprehensive study of the subject.Years One and Two will focus on developing core chemistry knowledge and laboratory skills across all branches of chemistry. In addition, student development is supported by essential skills components, including coding and digital skills, intercultural communication workshops to enhance your global employability, and research skills to spark your intellectual curiosity for the subject. In the third year we offer the flexibility to tailor your course by specialising in subject areas you’re passionate about through an extensive range of options. You can further enrich your course, and gain valuable professional experience, by extending its duration to include a year in industry. Alternatively you may opt for a three-month international placement in Year Three (replacing your core lab time).Building on the core of our three-year BSc, the Chemistry Master’s (MChem) degree gives you the opportunity to make a real difference by working on a single research project in the fourth year. Under the supervision of our internationally recognised academic staff, you might, for example: discover a significant improvement in solar cell technology, develop an electrochemical sensor for pharmaceutical analysis, a novel compound for cryopreservation of cells, a renewable polymer made from vegetables, or an improved catalyst or an antibacterial agent extracted from plants. You will also choose optional modules to support your project and create a wide base of knowledge in other advanced areas of chemistry.You may also wish to look into an intercalated placement year to gain extensive professional experience (increasing the course duration to five years). Or, you could consider transferring to our MChem with Industrial Placement or MChem with International Placement at the end of Year Two.MChem accreditation: All our MChem courses are accredited by the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC).
