Programmes

The Department of Chemistry offers coursework leading to the degree of:

• B.Sc. (Hons) in Chemistry
  
• B.Sc. (Hons) Chemistry with Materials
• B.Sc. (Hons) Chemistry and Biology
  
• B.Sc. (Hons) Chemistry and Physics
• B.Sc. (Hons) Chemistry and Statistics and Operations Research
  
• M.Sc. in Applied Chemistry (by advanced study and research)
  
• M.Sc. in Chemistry (by research)
  
• Ph.D. in Chemistry

Postgraduate programmes require that the student carries out a research project. In the M.Sc. in Applied Chemistry, the research topic is in pharmaceutical analysis. In the M.Sc.by research and the Ph.D. students can chose a project in the areas of expertise of one of the members of staff. Academic members of the department carry out research in the following areas of Chemistry:

• Environmental Chemistry
• Photochemically-induced Electron Transfer Reactions in Organic Chemistry
• Organic Synthesis
• Polymers, Colloids and Interfaces (physical chemistry of proteins, nanoparticle production and characterisation, surfactant-protein interactions)
• Pharmaceutical Analysis
• Novel Sensors
  
• Molecular Modelling
• Transition Metal and Lanthanide Complexes
• Homogeneous Catalysis
