Advanced Organic Chemistry

Train to be at the forefront of organic chemistry. Underpinning research and development in many areas of the chemical industry, organic chemistry couldn’t be more important. In fact, it’s the central discipline that drives innovation across many diverse areas of the science and technology industry - from forensics to food, pharmaceuticals to energy.

Advanced level training is becoming increasingly important in this field. On our MSc Advanced Organic Chemistry degree, you’ll broaden your organic chemistry knowledge and study subjects such as stereochemistry, catalysis, organometallics, and spectroscopy.

Whether you’re a chemistry graduate who wants to specialise, or you have a degree in combined science with a chemistry component, our dynamic MSc course is designed to take your knowledge to the next level. Building on your undergraduate training in chemistry, this MSc allows you to develop advanced knowledge in important modern aspects of organic chemistry. This high-level training is sought after by employers in the chemical industry and academic institutions working on fundamental research.

You can expect to reach the frontiers of knowledge in organic chemistry, including organic reaction mechanisms, spectroscopy, and synthetic strategy. You’ll learn through advanced lectures, seminars, and laboratory classes - which are specifically relevant to the needs of the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, specialty, and fine organic chemicals industries.

You’ll also complete an in-depth laboratory research project, which allows you to work closely with our pioneering, award-winning academics. Through this, you’ll showcase your skills and learning - as well as bring new original thought and research to bear on your topic. You’ll graduate with high-level specialised skills and knowledge in organic chemistry, ready to embark on a rewarding career in the industry or progress to PhD-level study. .
