Materials chemistry has emerged as an important sub-discipline within chemistry. It cuts across the traditional organic/inorganic/physical boundaries of chemistry and overlaps many disciplines from engineering to biosciences.
Materials chemists now have a leading role in areas such as:
- microelectronics
- polymer science
- catalysis
- nanotechnology
They also make an important contribution to areas of more traditional chemistry such as the pharmaceutical sector. Understanding the 'physical properties' of intermediates and products is now recognised as essential in optimising the synthesis and properties of pharmaceutically-active ingredients in medicines.
This programme offers you the opportunity to take several taught courses, including an introduction to laboratory techniques and research methods pertinent to materials chemistry.
The programme also involves a period of full-time research project work, leading to the submission of your master's dissertation.
