Chemistry is the science of matter. It is so fundamental it has been called the central science and it provides the foundation for atmospheric, biological, earth, ocean, and material sciences. Graduates in chemistry can go on to work in chemistry-focussed technical careers, but many also use their studies in ‘the central science’ as a platform for further study or careers in medical, legal and government roles.
The study of chemistry covers the properties, synthesis and transformations of substances. This includes understanding their applications to the way we live and how these substances modify our environment. Through chemistry, we begin to understand the material and biological world.
