Academic staff in the School of Chemistry have research interests in the following areas:  

• Analytical and bio-analytical chemistry 
• Chemical biology  
• Bioorganic and bioinorganic chemistry 
• Computational and theoretical chemistry 
• Energy materials 
• Molecular and structural biochemistry 
• Nanosciences 
• Synthetic biology 
• Synthetic organic, inorganic and materials chemistry 
• Ultrafast laser spectroscopy 

Working closely with an academic supervisor gives you the support to carry out your own independent research and make your own mark. We have a wealth of remarkable academics, but how do you know which team will be right for you? 

We suggest you look at the School's website, check out some academics and read up on some of their publications. We recommend that you identify at least one member of staff at UEA who might be your supervisor and that you contact them, to express your interest and discuss your research proposal.  You will need to submit a research proposal of no more than 1500 words with your application.

The minimum academic requirement for entry to a doctoral degree and MPhil degree is a UK upper second class undergraduate honours degree and a Master's degree, or equivalent.
