Chemistry

Programme structure

• Lecture Courses

Our Masters programmes last one year (for a full-time student) and contain 180 credits. You will undertake 120 credits of lecture courses in Semesters 1 and 2 (September to March).

• Research Project

During the Summer (June to August), you will work on your MSc project, which is worth 60 credits. A research project embedded within one of our internationally-leading research groups is central to our advanced teaching ethos.

Courses

Most of your lectures will be in common with the final-year MSci Chemistry or Chemistry with Medicinal Chemistry classes. In addition you will attend the “Frontiers of Chemistry” course together with the level-3 MSci class.
