Chemistry with International Placement MChem

Chemistry is central to solving humanitys most pressing problems - climate change, renewable energy, sustainable materials, and eliminating hunger and disease. Our chemistry degrees help develop the practical, analytical, numerical, and logical reasoning skills you need to help solve these global challenges – and also offer an exciting route into a wide range of future career paths.<br/><br/>In this degree, you will undertake a 3-6 month overseas research placement in Year Three, performing research with an academic group at an overseas university or research institute. This will give you unique experience of cutting-edge research, but at an overseas university, helping to expand your own horizons and further boost your research experience.<br/><br/>The fourth year of this MChem degree builds on the experience previous years by enabling students to undertake a significant research project, working with an academic group to help solve important real-world problems drawn from the wide spectrum of the chemical sciences.<br/><br/>This course is accredited by the Royal Society of Chemistry, subject to passing required modules.<br/><br/>This degree is ideal if you are considering a career in research and/or want to explore different fields with an international placement. In addition to teaching at Warwick during your first three years, in the final part of your third year you will have the opportunity to study for three to six months at one of our partner institutions in Europe, Australia or Singapore. You will work with an academic on a cutting-edge research project, developing transferable skills including team working, communication, problem solving, analysis and independent investigation. You may even make a discovery that gets published in a scientific journal.<br/><br/>Your fourth year will be spent back at Warwick, carrying out a research project alongside optional modules that allow you to tailor the course to your interests.
