On this course, you will learn to use chemistry in problem solving, and to present your theories and findings confidently and imaginatively. You will explore scientific instruments and techniques, and enjoy access to dedicated IT facilities. You also may have the opportunity to tailor your studies to reflect your interests, and learn how to pursue your own research. 

This course is accredited by the Royal Society of Chemistry.

The many opportunities offered by this course will equip you to confidently and skilfully pursue your chosen career. You might choose to work in industry, research or education; you could choose to become a chemical engineer, research scientist, toxicologist, patent lawyer, analytical chemist or technical writer. 

Alternatively, the problem-solving nature of chemistry gives you the edge in industries where these skills are sought in a variety of employment areas from IT to marketing and accountancy.

Many students go on to higher study after a first degree in chemistry, allowing them to specialise in an area of interest such as analytical, forensic, synthetic or materials chemistry, and eventually work in a wide range of other specialist roles.
