BSc (Hons) Environmental Science and Medicinal Chemistry

... United Kingdom
... Keele University

Course Overview

Studying our combined honours in Environmental Science and Medicinal Chemistry will give you the opportunity to develop a breadth of knowledge and a wide range of skills in two fascinating subjects.

In environmental science you will develop a range of skills and techniques that are relevant to the interdisciplinary study of the environmental, ecological and sustainability challenges that people and planet face. You will develop an awareness of the nature, causes and scope of these challenges and an appreciation of the emerging technological, political and societal solutions to these issues. Your theoretical knowledge will be strengthened with hands-on experience in a series of skills such as statistics, Geographical Information Science, programming, qualitative methods and fieldwork.

In medicinal chemistry you will explore core concepts in chemistry applicable to the environmental sciences and key fundamental principles of analytical, inorganic, organic and physical chemistry. To apply your learning, you will gain professional chemistry skills that are necessary for laboratory classes throughout the course. From carrying out research in the real world through an Environmental Impact Assessment and fieldwork course to studying drug design and deepening your skills in the applications of analytical and spectroscopic techniques, our curriculum offers multiple opportunities to apply your learning to environments similar to those you may encounter within your career.

The programme will culminate with the opportunity to unleash your creativity and apply the techniques you have acquired throughout your studies by completing a final year environmental science or environment/sustainability research project. You will also have the option to explore topics that are aligned to your career aspirations or personal interests.

Examples of previous research projects include:

Climate change impact on worms

Carbon footprint of business travel

Emissions from hybrid passenger cars

Horse trial events and soil compaction

Environmental attitudes to practitioners of free running
