Course summary

Warwick's Polymer Science MSc covers core concepts of polymer synthesis, with focus on their physical/material properties and industry translation through dedicated business modules. This MSc is ideal for those looking for a career in polymers and materials processing. Warwick is highly ranked within UK league tables, and is 67th in the world (QS World University Rankings 2024).

The MSc in Polymer Science is designed not only to introduce you to polymer synthesis and characterisation, but also to demonstrate that macro-scale properties span into the nano- and meso- scale.

On this MSc course, you will have the flexibility to choose from elective modules including business-related modules from across the Faculty of Science, Engineering and Medicine (subject to availability). These modules will improve your business knowledge whilst you are becoming an expert in polymer science. The course is ideal if you are looking for a career, not only in a manufacturing company working in the area of plastics, advanced functional materials, nano-materials, but also PhD-level study in this growing and exciting area of science.

Professor Dr Remzi Becer is the head of the MSc in Polymer Science. Please contact chem-pgt@warwick.ac.uk with any specific Department of Chemistry questions, where our staff are available to discuss any queries.
