Chemistry (including a Foundation Year)

Our BSc in Chemistry provides you with a broad base of fundamental chemistry, and the practical skills to begin a rewarding career in science. We teach a combination of modern, practical chemistry and theory, and you can choose from specific specialisms in medicinal chemistry and drug discovery, environmental and sustainable chemistry, as well as industrial research. You will also gain practical work experience with industrial partners and academic staff.

Foundation Year courses have been designed for students who do not have the necessary academic qualifications needed to enter directly into the first year of a degree but who have the ability and commitment to do so. Once the Foundation Year has been completed successfully, you can then go on to complete your degree.
