MChem Chemistry (with a year in York)
About this course
MChem (Hons) in MChem (Hons) Chemistry (with a year in York), a chemistry degree centred on chemical principles and advanced laboratory training. Core topics include Programming, Research Methods, and Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. This four-year undergraduate programme is accredited by the Royal Society of Chemistry and includes an integrated year of specialist study in York. The first year establishes core knowledge through modules such as Foundations of Chemistry 1, Foundations of Chemistry 2, Introductory Skills and Practical 1, and Foundations of Chemistry 3. The second year expands upon these principles via Advanced Chemistry Concepts and Applications 1, Advanced Chemistry Concepts and Applications 2, Advanced Skills and Practical 1, and Advanced Chemistry Concepts and Applications 3, with options including Programming and Machine Learning for Chemistry and Green and Sustainable Chemistry. The third year continues with advanced academic study through Frontiers of Chemistry 1, Advanced Topics and Practical, Frontiers of Chemistry 2, and Frontiers of Chemistry 3, alongside specialist options such as Chemistry and Disease and Atmospheric Chemistry, Climate Change and Net Zero. The final year focuses on independent investigation and professional development through the Advanced Research Project (York), Research Communication, and Professional Research Development.
