化学是一个线性的，定量的主题，包含大量的事实材料。这是一门实验科学，实践工作和实践技能的发展至关重要。这项为期四年的计划是通过使用讲座，辅导课，问题课和实验室实践工作将双“核心”模块和单个“附加”模块混合在一起来交付的，最终在第四年进行了一项重大研究项目安置在英国以外的研究实验室中，通常是在有交换计划的大学中。讲座提供了特定领域的关键信息，并构成了学习该主题的基本概念和事实的主要基础。教程是您获取特定学科知识的另一种方法，还可以在形成性的环境中发展解决问题的技巧，以体现来自讲座的概念。研讨会在第一年用作修
The chemistry department at Durham is one of the leading departments in the UK and within the Top 100 across the world. When you choose to study for a four-year MChem degree you will join a dynamic and focused learning community that is home to multiple research institutes, a range of first-class facilities and experts with close links to industry. Current developments in both research and industry are used to bring theoretical learning to life.<br><br>Chemistry degrees at Durham offer a high level of flexibility. The MChem contains the same core curriculum in Years 1 and 2 as our other chemistry degrees and you can switch to one of the other degrees up to the end of the second year.<br><br>You will build strong foundations in inorganic, organic and physical chemistry and learn practical skills in our modern teaching laboratories. In your third year, you will continue to learn the core aspects of modern chemistry, and start to focus on the concepts and skills required in research. In your final year, you will complete a research project at an overseas university with exchanges offered across Europe, Canada, Australia, Singapore and Hong Kong among others. This degree offers a great opportunity to develop your language skills and your independent living skills.<br><br>You will learn how chemistry is the central science with learning interfaces with biosciences, earth sciences, engineering, physics and astronomy. You will be exposed to cutting-edge analytical techniques and learn how they can be used to assist research and tackle global issues. Graduates are ready to either move straight into employment in a wide range of industries or advance into further studies and scientific research.
