Course Overview

You might work in the industry, research or education; you could choose to become a chemical engineer, research scientist, toxicologist, patent lawyer, analytical chemist, or technical writer. Alternatively, the problem-solving nature of chemistry gives graduates the edge in industries where these skills are sought in a variety of employment areas from IT to marketing and accountancy. Many students go on to higher study after the first degree in chemistry, allowing them to specialize in an area of interest such as analytical, forensic, synthetic, or materials chemistry and eventually work in a wide range of other specialist roles.
