This accredited course explores the interplay between chemistry and biology to develop a deeper understanding of the two subjects. It is a four-year degree programme with an integrated masters. You will have the opportunity of an assessed year spent in a research laboratory of a major chemical company. You will be a paid employee and will work on a research project. Recent placement students have worked at organisations such as Actelion, AstraZeneca, BP, GlaxoSmithKline, Lubrizol and Sygnature. In your fourth year you will undertake your own major research project on a topic that interests you. This will help you further develop your practical ability, team working and problem-solving skills, in addition to academic literature and presentation skills. Studying in our modern facilities will give you valuable practical experience, preparing you for a wide range of careers. Our students go on to work in a variety of industries, including chemistry, physics and pharmaceuticals.  Employers of our previous graduates include leading organisations such as Boots, Cancer Research UK, the NHS and GlaxoSmithKline. We have been rated Gold for teaching excellence (Teaching Excellence Framework 2017). You'll be taught by academic staff who will feed your curiosity for chemistry. You may recognise some of our staff from the popular Periodic Videos YouTube channel. - Accredited by the Royal Society of Chemistry - 11th for chemistry in the UK (Complete University Guide 2021) - Tailor your degree with optional modules - Flexibility to transfer between most chemistry degrees - Small group tutorials to support your learning

In the first year, you will take introductory modules in chemistry, physiology and pharmacology, including practical training. If you do not have A level mathematics (or equivalent) then you will take the Mathematical Toolkit module to prepare you for this aspect of the chemistry course. In your second year, you will explore topics in physical, inorganic and organic chemistry in more depth. You'll also study spectroscopy, biological chemistry and pharmacology. This includes a case study on the development of a recent drug. During this year, we will support you in your application to potential companies for your year three placement. In your third year, you will have the opportunity to work on a 90-credit project in a research laboratory of a major chemical company where you will be a paid employee. Three 10-credit distance learning theory modules will develop your core chemistry knowledge. In the fourth year, you will work on an in-depth research project in an area of your choice.
