Chemistry with Mathematics at University of Lincoln - UCAS

Course summary

This joint degree provides students with the opportunity to examine the relationship between chemistry and mathematics and the important roles of both disciplines in different contexts. Students are given the chance to develop an in-depth knowledge and understanding of chemistry along with training in practical chemistry and mathematics. This can include programming, computation and data analysis.

Modules

Students can cover core chemistry subjects, which can include synthetic methodologies and molecular characterisation; laboratory techniques; molecular structure, bonding and mechanism; and electronic structure, spectroscopy and reactivity in p-block compounds. Throughout the programme, students will have opportunities to engage with industry professionals to develop professional practice that enhances employability. Challenges based on industry-led, interdisciplinary projects are undertaken throughout the programme with national and multi-national companies. All students in the fourth year of the MChem programme currently have the opportunity to undertake a full-year placement. Students can choose a placement with one of the University’s industry or overseas partners, or in one of our research groups in education. Placements are conducted alongside advanced academic study, focusing on research frontiers in chemistry.

Additional fee information

For each course students may find that there are additional costs. These may be with regard to the specific clothing, materials or equipment required, depending on their subject area. Some courses provide opportunities for students to undertake field work or field trips. Where these are compulsory, the cost for the travel, accommodation and meals may be covered by the University and so is included in the fee. Where these are optional students will normally (unless stated otherwise) be required to pay their own transportation, accommodation and meal costs. Some courses offer the opportunity to take part in placements. When students are on an optional placement in the UK or overseas or studying abroad, they will be required to cover their own transport and accommodation and meals costs. Placements can range from a few weeks to a full year if students choose to undertake an optional sandwich year in industry. Students are encouraged to obtain placements in industry independently. Tutors may provide support and advice to students who require it during this process. With regards to text books, the University provides students who enrol with a comprehensive reading list and our extensive library holds either material or virtual versions of the core texts that students are required to read. However, students may prefer to purchase some of these for themselves and will therefore be responsible for this cost.
