Chemistry

Few disciplines are as stimulating, exciting and fast-moving as chemistry.

89% of our undergraduates and 92% of our postgraduate taught students in employment or further study (Graduate Outcomes 2024, HESA).

As a student of chemistry, you’ll seek answers to some of life’s most fundamental questions. You’ll learn about the latest advances in inorganic, organic, analytical, physical, computational, forensic and medicinal chemistry, and you’ll harness the power of new technologies through our Royal Society of Chemistry accredited courses.

The lecturers go above and beyond for students. There is an open office policy, which enables students to contact teaching staff at any time. This availability and readiness to support students is impressive.
