Develop solutions to society's global challenges and help make a difference to the world. From saving habitats and improving technology to contributing to medical advances - the applications of chemistry are endless. The knowledge and skills you will acquire on our accredited programme will enable you to enter a wide range of careers and contribute to a better, sustainable world.<br>From the technology we use to how we treat illnesses, chemistry is essential to our modern life and offers a wide variety of career opportunities in many fields from pharmaceuticals and food technology to forensics and teaching. Our accredited Chemistry BSc will provide you with a solid grounding in the underpinning theory of the subject, plenty of hands-on practical experience in Keele's state-of-the-art laboratories and the opportunity to personalise your learning and advance your research skills by undertaking an independent research project in your final year.<br><br>YEAR ONE<br>In your first year you will develop the skills to enable you to become a professional chemist. You will build a strong grounding in core chemistry knowledge and we will carefully guide you in understanding the mathematics underpinning the subject. Particular attention is paid to building your practical skills and you will have access to various types of research-standard equipment you are likely to use within your career in chemistry - such as ultra-violet visible spectroscopy which is used to follow the rate of reactions of molecules that contain chromophores.<br><br>To provide context to the knowledge you are learning, you will also look at ways in which chemistry is applied to sustainable development and the environment. You will examine the political, social and economic impacts and explore topics like nuclear chemistry and energy, geochemistry, health and toxicology and green chemistry.<br><br>YEAR TWO<br>Year two continues to build on developing your theoretical knowledge and practical skills. You will start studying more in depth spectroscopic techniques for analytical and physical chemistry, as well as named reactions for chemical synthesis. This is embedded in your practicals, during which you will learn advanced experimental techniques including handling air-sensitive reagents. To develop your appreciation of the wider context of the subject, through our optional modules you can explore the economic, international and sustainability issues surrounding industrial chemistry or study the principles of drug design by beginning on our medicinal chemistry pathway.<br><br>YEAR THREE<br>In your final year, you will take a deep dive into core advanced modules including physical and inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry and a wide range of analytical techniques and their applications to solving problems. You will also have the opportunity to align your degree to your career aspirations and interests by choosing from a variety of optional modules and completing a final year chemistry project and dissertation in an area of your choice. The chemistry project will specifically develop your experimental skills and your ability to work independently in the laboratory, with the dissertation focusing on developing your non-experimental research skills by applying and developing your knowledge and understanding of a specific aspect of chemistry.
