This four-year programme offers an extra year on top of the Chemistry with Mathematics BSc in which to undertake an original chemical research project and study chemistry and its relationship with other disciplines in greater depth.

In each year of your degree you will take a number of individual modules, normally valued at 0.5 or 1.0 credits, adding up to a total of 4.0 credits for the year. Modules are assessed in the academic year in which they are taken. The balance of compulsory and optional modules varies from programme to programme and year to year. A 1.0 credit is considered equivalent to 15 credits in the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).

This programme is offered either as a three-year BSc or as a four-year MSci. The first two years of study are identical, so you can defer which to opt for until the end of your second year. We advise you to select the four-year MSci initially as this keeps more options open.
The chemistry content directly follows that of the single-subject Chemistry programme. You will cover the full range of chemistry core components, together with relevant optional modules in chemistry such as in quantum mechanics, computational chemistry and numerical methods.

The mathematics component takes up around 25% of the programme. In the first two years there are a number of compulsory mathematics modules including modules in pure mathematics, advanced calculus and geometry, group theory and linear algebra, while in the third year you choose from a wide range of mathematics modules.

In the final year you will undertake a chemical research project and optional modules, allowing you to specialise in the field of chemistry of your choice. You will also have the opportunity to select advanced mathematics modules.
