Description
This BSc degree is designed to give you a broad education in chemistry and, in addition, to supply you with a wide range of research, mathematical and computational skills, with practical training an essential element.
This four-year course is designed for students who are unable to meet the requirements for admission to year one of the BSc Chemistry course, providing the academic background needed for a science degree. Upon completion of the preliminary year, you will automatically progress into year one of the BSc Chemistry degree programme.
The programme has been accredited by the Royal Society of Chemistry, and is suitable not only for students who want to progress to a career in chemistry or related disciplines, but also those who wish to use the framework of knowledge and skills obtained in a wider context, such as in business or administration.
