The chemical industry is incredibly important to the UK economy. Can you see yourself working in the chemical industry after finishing your studies? Do you want to improve your employment prospects and earn money whilst studying? If so, our Chemistry with Industrial Experience MSci degree programme, could be for you.
In this four-year Chemistry with Industrial Experience MSci, you will spend the third year in paid employment. By working and studying in an industrial setting you will not only be significantly enhancing your CV and career prospects but this ‘year out’ will also provide you with valuable research experience that will stand you in great stead for the research project that you will carry out when you return to Birmingham for your final year.
At Birmingham you’ll learn first-hand from world-renowned researchers who are pushing the boundaries of knowledge in areas from nanoscale chemistry and chemical biology to green polymers and chemical imaging. By the time you graduate, you’ll be able to analyse problems and interpret complex data, propose innovative solutions and design new molecules and materials to solve many of the challenges facing society. You will also be equipped with highly developed lab skills, including meticulous analytical work, the measurement of physical properties and the ability to carry out multi-step synthetic procedures.
We’ve been at the forefront of chemistry teaching and research for more than 100 years, producing several Nobel Prize-winners along the way, and we have some of the best facilities and equipment in the country. No wonder our students regularly place us among the top chemistry departments in UK for student satisfaction.
