Programme overview
The School of Chemistry is one of the largest in the UK and is an internationally recognised centre of teaching and research. Currently there are over 250 postgraduate and postdoctoral researchers, from many different countries, working with more than 60 academic staff on a wide range of research themes. Extensive collaborations with science-based industries and leading international academic centres ensure that research in Bristol remains at the frontier of science.
The School of Chemistry is housed in spacious, modern laboratories, which are well equipped with state-of-the-art facilities. There is a comprehensive graduate programme to ensure you have the opportunity to build a wide range of skills, both in chemistry and other transferable skills.
The School of Chemistry hosts or participates in a number of Centres for Doctoral Training (CDTs) and Doctoral Training Partnerships (DTPs). Training opportunities in these national flagship centres are available in the following disciplines:
chemical synthesis
functional nanomaterials
catalysis
theory and modelling in chemical sciences
diamond science and technology
synthetic biology
advanced composites
earth and environmental sciences
quantum engineering
future autonomous and robotic systems

Research groups
The School of Chemistry maintains a traditional managerial structure encompassing three sections: Inorganic and Materials; Organic and Biological; and Physical and Theoretical. However, the school’s research profile is defined according to nine themes, each with a critical mass of researchers. Further information on the school's research profile can be found at Explore Bristol Research.
- Atmospheric and Global Change Chemistry
- Biological and Archaeological Chemistry
- Catalysis
- Computational and Theoretical Chemistry
- Materials for Energy
- Soft Matter, Colloids and Materials
- Spectroscopy and Dynamics
- Supramolecular and Mechanistic Chemistry
- Synthesis
Researchers in the School of Chemistry are engaged in a number of collaborative centres and research institutes, including the Cabot Institute and BrisSynBio, with broader engagement from researchers across the Faculty of Science, the University and beyond.
Careers
Many of our PhD graduates are successful in securing postdoctoral positions at universities in the UK and abroad. A PhD in chemistry is valued in many employment sectors worldwide, including pharmaceutical sciences, polymers, coatings, agrochemicals, instrumentation manufacturers and management consultancy. Your skills will be in high demand from the chemical and allied industries, as well as the public sector.
