£28,190/Yr
The BSc (Hons) in Chemistry is a four-year course run by the School of Chemistry. Chemistry at St Andrews provides students with a fundamental and comprehensive understanding of chemistry, along with a highly transferrable training in numeracy, problem-solving, teamwork and communication skills.
In the first two years, students will take modules in organic, inorganic and physical chemistry.
Alongside chemistry, in the first year of their studies, they will be required to study an additional two subjects. In the second year, they will usually carry on at least one of these subjects, sometimes two.
The knowledge and skills in research and analysis that they gain during theirr first two years will prepare them to undertake more advanced and specialist modules during their final two years. These specialist subjects include (but are not limited to):
- synthetic methods and reaction mechanisms
- the chemistry of biomolecules
- energy conversion and storage materials
- fragrance, food and colour chemistry
- statistical mechanics and computational chemistry.
During the final year, they will also carry out a research project in one of the School's highly-rated research groups on a topic chosen in consultation with staff.
The University of St Andrews operates on a flexible modular degree system by which degrees are obtained through the accumulation of credits.
