Introduction to Chemistry
Chemistry in the event of continuous development, which exceeds all limits in what is possible in the fields of science, engineering and medicine. Whether you are studying biology for human life, working with scientists or influencing technology penetration, a chemistry certificate helps you influence the world we live in.
Studying chemistry at abuckingham-academy gives you the knowledge and skills to achieve an exciting career. The bachelor units include the basis of modern chemistry, organic and inorganic chemistry, somatic chemistry, mathematics, and Earth, which will include organic, physical, synthetic and biochemistry.
It provides students with advanced knowledge and skills in modern chemical sciences and encourages them to explore research-led topics through a wide range of modules. Students can choose from a number of module options, allowing expanding fundamental knowledge of all areas of chemistry and/or specialisation in the area of interest.
Highlights
- The aims of the programme include introducing modern chemical science concepts and techniques, exploring further advanced research-led topics through a range of optional modules and to equip you with analytical, critical, and communication skills.
- A key aspect of the programme is undertaking a significant research project for your dissertation. This enables you to develop skills in one of many areas aligned with the research interests of the School of Chemistry, for example, catalysis, surface science, energy materials, chemical biology, synthetic chemistry or structural chemistry.
