医学（荣誉）学士学位-化学

化学是对我们周围许多不同事物的研究：一种物质如何转变为另一种物质以及分子的性质与结构之间的关系的研究。它在研究诸如如何从矿石中获取金属，将石油转化为塑料以及开发治疗癌症的方法中起着关键作用。在研究化学时，您将了解它对我们周围许多事物的影响：染料，油漆，药物，硅片，人造臀部，用于服装的合成纤维，能量存储，光纤和橡胶轮胎。
Honours is a widely recognised and highly regarded additional year of undergraduate study available to you after you complete your undergraduate course. It's a unique opportunity for you to explore your research potential and put the theory from your undergraduate studies into practice. An honours qualification is not only well regarded in academia, but also in industry where further, concentrated studies in a specialised area is highly sought after. Extend your knowledge of your undergraduate degree with a stand-alone Honours year in your subject area expertise. This course is available to students who have already completed their studies in this study area. Depending on your interests and the availability of honours projects, you might wish to undertake honours in anatomy, biochemistry, biology (genetics), cell pathology, histology and embryology, immunology, infectious diseases, microbiology, pharmacology or physiology. This course is also offered at the Westmead precinct. The Faculty of Science has an outstanding reputation for the quality of its postgraduate research programs across a wide range of science disciplines. With significant levels of funding from various research councils and bodies, and the provision of major research facilities, the Faculty is committed to providing leading education and research training to its students. There are a range of research programs available, depending on which stage you are at in your academic career. Whether at the doctoral or masters level, you undertake self-directed, supervised research in your specialised area of science, and produce a thesis considered to be a substantially original contribution to the subject concerned. The Honours year in Science provides a research training pathway to our higher research degrees, the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and Master of Science (MSc). The postgraduate research programs offered by the Faculty attract a large number of domestic and international students each year.<br><br>The honours course in the University of Sydney School of Chemistry gives you the opportunity to get involved in a research program in an area that is of interest to you.
