You can apply to study for either a BSc or an MChem (Master of Chemistry). The MChem builds on the BSc course with a master's year and is a direct route to a master's qualification. On an MChem, you’ll spend a year doing research with an industry partner before returning for a final year of masters-level modules. Depending on your progress, you may have the option to switch to a BSc or MChem during your studies. Find out more about the benefits of an integrated master's degree.
