Combine your love of languages with your passion for chemistry with MSci Chemistry with a Modern Language. Explore the breadth and depth of the central science that is key to solving global challenges and unlock endless career possibilities.
Guided by world class researchers and educators, you'll graduate with a deep appreciation across chemistry with language skills to thrive in a range of industries. Whether you pursue a career in chemistry or venture into other fields, you'll be ready to take on leading roles around the world, or put your language skills to use in UK-based roles requiring a modern language.
Explore the dynamic world of modern chemistry in a department that has produced several Nobel Prize-winners from over a century of pioneering teaching and cutting-edge research. Learn from international experts who’ll help you develop a rigorous understanding of underpinning concepts while introducing you to the most exciting aspects of the subject.
Combine core understanding with a flexible choice from areas that most interest you, such as analytical, biological, computational, medicinal, functional and energy materials, and sustainable synthesis. You’ll also study one of five languages: French, German, Japanese, Mandarin or Spanish.
Build your practical and research skills in superbly-equipped and modern facilities, culminating in a final year project that you chose in in one of our internationally-recognised research groups.
