Chemistry is a linear, quantitative subject containing a significant volume of factual material. It is an experimental science where practical work, and the development of practical skills, are important. This four-year course is delivered through a mixture of €œCore€ and €œadd-on€ modules using lectures, tutorials, problem classes, and laboratory practical work, culminating in a major research project in the fourth year conducted on placement at a research laboratory outside the UK, normally at a university that we have an exchange scheme in place. Lectures provide the key information on a particular area and form the main basis by which you will learn the fundamental concepts and facts of the subject. In tutorials and workshops you will acquire and consolidate subject-specific knowledge, and also develop problem-solving skills embodying the concepts from lectures in a formative environment.
