Our BSc Chemistry with Foundation is a four-year programme that includes a year of foundational study and leads directly into the three-year course.<br/><br/>Following the foundation year, you will spend the next two years learning the core subjects that all chemists need to know. Topics include trends in the periodic table, carbonyl group chemistry and chemical kinetics. You will be taught by internationally leading experts through a combination of lectures, lab classes, workshops and tutorials.<br/><br/>In your final year you will study more advanced topics influenced by the cutting-edge chemistry taking place around you. The Departments staff specialise in a number of areas including nanotechnology, synthesis, polymers and advanced materials, surface science and forensic analysis, providing a wide range of options for your final year research project.<br/><br/>Additionally, if you are interested in teaching as a career, we offer a school-based project in your final year. Students spend one day a week for two terms working alongside both teachers and pupils on an individual project. This project gives you the necessary experience for teacher training applications and helps develop your professional skills for careers which involve working with people.<br/><br/>All our chemistry courses are very flexible and, depending on your grades, you can transfer between them at the end of your first or second year.<br/><br/>**Placement**<br/><br/>We have a dedicated placements officer who is able to advise on career options, CVs and letters of application, as well as to help you find a placement.We have previously sent students to companies such as Coty (Rimmel), Dow Corning and GSK.
