Chemistry MSc

You’ll carry out two smaller laboratory projects prior to starting your main research project, to develop practical and scientific communication skills. You also undertake a Research and Presentation Skills module to further develop the higher-level skills needed for research.

Lectured modules consist of a wide range of segments, spanning the breadth of chemistry, from which you can choose, to tailor your MSc to your strengths and interests.

We use a mixture of lectures, laboratory practicals, workshops and individual research projects. You may tailor the area of your research project to your particular interests.

Assessment of taught modules is through examination, laboratory reports and coursework. Assessment of the project is through a 15,000-word dissertation, oral presentation and viva, as well as assessed performance during the project.
