About Master of Chemistry (Honours) - Chemistry (Placement Year) (F103)

The Master of Chemistry in pure chemistry provides a thorough grounding in the subject over three years with a substantial research project in the final year - taught within Loughborough's state-of-the-art STEM Lab facilities by the department's renowned academic staff. The Master of Chemistry (Honours) in Chemistry provides a students comprehensive study of the subject with the opportunity to tailor their degree towards their passions and career aspirations through a range of optional modules. Ideal for students considering careers in industrial research or a PhD, the final year of the program allows students to undertake an extensive research project, supervised by a member of the department's academic staff and working in research laboratories alongside postgraduate and postdoctoral researchers.

Throughout the course students will gain practical hands-on laboratory experience in Loughborough's state-of-the-art STEM Lab facilities. Students also have the opportunity to add further value to their studies with a year spent working in industry gaining highly sought-after workplace experience through a placement scheme or by exploring options for study abroad. Students will also benefit from the department's exceptional pastoral support, peer-mentoring scheme, and the compelling insights of the academic staff, many of whom are active in research with far-reaching impact.

In Years 1 and 2 the core areas of inorganic, organic and physical chemistry form the backbone of the course, with additional modules in spectroscopy, analytical chemistry, and mathematics. Laboratory classes, workshops and seminars support these lectures. After Year 2, the development of core chemistry continues along with optional topics which include drug synthesis and action, advanced analytical research methodologies, energy and equilibria, and inorganic chemistry. In the third year of students will study research techniques and methods that are complemented with further advanced modules in chemistry. Two investigative projects, often working in teams, are undertaken - building students' research skills and teamworking abilities. In the final year students will study advanced research techniques that are complemented with further optional modules in chemistry, and a substantial research project (worth 60 credits).
