Course Summary

Set in 600 acres of countryside in North Staffordshire, we have one of the largest and most beautiful campuses in Britain. We’re proud to be No.2 in England for Student Satisfaction with Course (Guardian University League Table, 2020), investing more than £140m in our campus in the last ten years, including £45m new science laboratories. In 2021 we were proud to be awarded Sustainability Institution of the Year at the prestigious Green Gown Awards as part of our mission to become a carbon neutral campus by 2030. We're committed to supporting you to achieve your career goals, and have a dedicated Careers and Employability team who can assist you to navigate your options beyond Keele. The Chemistry with Medicinal Chemistry Integrated Master's programme at Keele will equip you with the skills you need to begin your research career. Medicinal chemistry is at the heart of the pharmaceutical industry, which develops lead compounds into viable drugs to cure disease. You could take up the challenge of developing the next generation of antibiotics, research effective drugs against major international diseases such as malaria, and develop targeted cures for cancer. During your first two years you will be taught in our teaching laboratories using industry standard modern equipment and embedding professional laboratory practice. Your year 4 research project has you working in our research laboratories on a project selected by you - from analysing drug metabolites, to developing new synthetic routes to active molecules and undertaking structure activity studies to enhance the potency of lead compounds. Keele also offers support so that you can integrate either a year abroad or an industrial placement into your degree programme. This degree is accredited by the Royal Society of Chemistry.
