分析化学

Analytical Chemistry is a fundamental science in high demand for employment in chemistry and related industries, focusing on the separation, identification, and quantification of matter using various techniques.

This 1-year MSc degree covers both the theory and the applications of a number of techniques in Analytical Chemistry, as well as introducing students to the principles of the “analytical process”, data analysis/presentation, and research methods. During the degree and the research project, students can specialise in different streams of Analytical Chemistry such as analysis of biomolecules, environmental analysis or characterisation of materials to name but a few.

The School of Chemistry hosts world-class Analytical Chemistry facilities that will be at the core of the teaching and training of our students, not only to provide the theoretical knowledge behind analytical chemistry techniques, but also unique hands-on experience of operating the instruments.

The programme will have a strong practical element and significant continuous assessment. The majority of teaching is delivered in small groups and the students are assessed through a combination of coursework, laboratory reports, presentations, exams, and performance and reporting on the MSc research project.
