Chemistry underpins the modern world, driving advances in healthcare, energy, materials and environmental sustainability. On this MSc, you will deepen your understanding of chemical principles while developing the skills needed to tackle complex scientific challenges, from designing new molecules to understanding the behaviour of matter at the atomic level, depending on your interests. You will engage with contemporary issues and emerging technologies, gaining insight into how chemistry shapes and responds to global needs.
What sets this course apart is its strong emphasis on research-led learning. You will undertake an extended, 90-credit research project – accounting for half of your degree – giving you the opportunity to immerse yourself in a substantial, original investigation. Working closely with leading academics, you will apply advanced experimental, computational or theoretical techniques, developing independence, creativity and critical thinking in a real research environment.
You will also benefit from exceptional flexibility, choosing to specialise in the area of chemistry that most excites you, whether that is organic, inorganic, physical, theoretical or computational chemistry, or interdisciplinary fields at the cutting edge of the discipline. This breadth reflects the department’s diverse expertise and ensures your learning is informed by world-leading research. By combining advanced taught content with an extensive research experience, this course provides a distinctive and rigorous preparation for doctoral study or a wide range of scientific careers.
