Overview

Students develop a systematic approach to devising experiments and/or computations and gain familiarity with a broad range of synthetic, analytical and spectroscopic techniques, acquiring skills for the critical analysis of their experimental and computational observations.

They also broaden their knowledge of chemistry through a selection of taught courses and are able to tailor the programme to meet their personal interests.

Careers

This Chemical Research programme offered at the University College London (UCL) is designed to provide first-hand experience of research at the cutting-edge of chemistry and is particularly suitable for those wishing to embark on an academic career (i.e. doctoral research) in this area, although the research and critical thinking skills developed will be equally valuable in a commercial environment.

Networking

Masters students will have opportunities to visit the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Royal Society both situated in central London, to attend public lectures and meetings given by eminent national and international scientists.
The student run ‘Chemical Physical society’ which is the oldest student run chemical society also holds weekly social events and scientific discussions and seminars on a variety of topical chemical and physical aspects.
In addition there are many scientific events offering networking opportunities organised by several societies across the college ranging from Life Science to Data science.

Accreditation

This programme is accredited by the RSC and successful completion will count towards eligibility for Chartered Chemist status for students with an appropriate Batchelor level qualification in Chemistry
