MChem学位的设计考虑了现代工业或研究化学家的需求。他们在扩大传统BSc课程的学术内容的同时，更加注重研究。MChem（荣誉）课程的第一年和第二年与我们的BSc（荣誉）课程相同。第一年介绍了该主题的基本方面。三个基础模块将巩固您的现有知识，并为您提供了发展高级概念的基础。您将学习和开发课程后期的实验室和实用技术。这些都是专业化学家所期望的技能，因此会提高您的简历和就业能力。您还将通过讨论环境化学的模块来扩展知识。学术和专业技能的进一步模块使您能够增强雇主重视的可转让技能。第二年将更深入地研究无机，有机和
MChem degrees have been designed with the needs of the modern industrial or research chemist in mind. They contain greater emphasis on research while expanding the academic content of the traditional BSc course. Years 1 and 2 of the MChem(Hons) course are identical to our BSc(Hons) course. Year 1 introduces the fundamental aspects of the subject. Three foundation modules will consolidate your existing knowledge and provide a base on which you can develop advanced concepts. You will learn and develop the laboratory and practical techniques needed for the later years of the course. These are among the skills expected of a professional chemist, so will enhance your CV and employability. You will also broaden your knowledge through a module that discusses environmental chemistry. A further module of academic and professional skills enables you to enhance transferable skills valued by employers. Year 2 takes a more in-depth look at inorganic, organic and physical chemistry. You will continue with experimental work, developing theoretical knowledge and practical skills for becoming a competent professional. Additional modules, covering experimental and analytical chemistry, will expand your skills for interpreting the results of modern spectroscopic investigations. An optional sandwich year or study abroad gives you the opportunity to gain first-hand experience of how chemistry is applied in an industrial situation or an overseas academic institution. A placement tutor will help prepare you to find a placement. Year 3 shares some modules with our BSc(Hons) course, particularly in areas of organic, natural product, physical, inorganic and analytical chemistry. However, it offers an opportunity to study industrial as well as polymer and materials chemistry in greater depth. In Year 4, you will spend half of your time on a research project, enhancing your skills in experimental design, critical analysis, problem solving and laboratory work. Other modules develop your knowledge and understanding of inorganic, physical, organic and medicinal chemistry.
