化学是一门与许多其他学科，尤其是生物学，材料科学和纳米技术相联系的学科。这在昆士兰州乃至全球范围内创造了一些最具活力和快速扩展的研究领域。您可以选择专门研究化学生物学或材料与纳米科学这两个领域之一。化学生物学流将为您提供知识和技能，以探索控制复杂生物系统的结构和功能的分子过程并合成新分子，这些技能在现代制药和医学研究中必不可少。材料与纳米科学流将使您了解原子和分子的受控排列的合成策略和自组装过程。您将全面了解分子结构与系统的宏观特性之间的关系，从而开发用于医学，能源生产，电子，生物技术和消费品的先进材料和
Chemistry is a discipline that interfaces with many other disciplines, particularly biology, materials science, and nanotechnology. This creates some of the most dynamic and rapidly expanding areas of research both within UQ and world wide. You can choose to specialise in one of two streams, either in Chemical Biology or Materials & Nanoscience. The Chemical Biology stream will provide you with the knowledge and skills to explore molecular processes that control the structure and function of complex biological systems and to synthesise new molecules, these skills are essential in modern pharmaceutical and medical research. The Materials & Nanoscience stream will expose you to the synthetic strategies and the processes of self-assembly for the controlled arrangement of atoms and molecules. You will develop a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between molecular structure and the macroscopic properties of systems enabling the development of advanced materials and devices that are used in medicine, energy production, electronics, biotechnology and consumer products.
