Course Overview

We are committed to tackling current and future scientific challenges, and our current research priorities, facilities and infrastructure put us in a strong position to achieve this.

Of course, we also need enthusiastic and enterprising young research workers who are eager to learn, determined to succeed, and committed to carrying out research to the highest standards of excellence. Currently, there are over 100 postgraduate students and postdoctoral research fellows carrying out research across a broad range of chemical disciplines.

Please consult our research website and decide the area of Chemistry in which you want to work, and with which member(s) of staff. You can then approach staff members directly, or contact the School Admissions Tutor, who will be happy to provide advice about the admissions process and help put you in touch with members of staff who have similar research interests to your own. Further information can be found on the School of Chemistry PhD pages.
