Modules

In the first year, you will take introductory modules in chemistry, physiology and pharmacology, including practical training. Our Mathematical Toolkit module is designed for students who do not have A level mathematics or equivalent. In the second year, you will cover topics in physical, inorganic and organic chemistry in more depth. You'll also study modules in spectroscopy, biological chemistry and pharmacology. In the third year, you will study advanced modules in chemistry and drug discovery. You can also choose from optional modules such as Complementary and Alternative Medicines, and Molecular Microbiology and CRISPR Systems. In the fourth year, you will be welcomed into one of the research groups within the School of Chemistry to undertake an in-depth research project. All projects will involve a review of relevant published work and the planning and execution of a research topic under the guidance of two supervisors.
