Overview

The Chemistry course from University of Wolverhampton aims to provide the student with a good grounding in theoretical and practical aspects of the main areas of chemistry (organic, inorganic, physical and analytical chemistry) with an opportunity to explore selected specialist areas such as polymer chemistry, environmental chemistry, aspects of industrial chemistry etc.

Careers

Consider the importance of medicines and pharmaceutical technology, industrial chemistry, hospital-based chemistry, forensic-based chemistry, environmental-based chemistry, the food and drinks industry and many other aspects of chemistry in the modern world. The UK’s “chemical industry” is one of the leading industrial contributors to the national economy.

There are many opportunities to apply chemical knowledge, principles and skills to a successful career in chemistry or chemistry-related discipline. “Chemistry will underpin economic growth, say industry leaders”, it was recently reported in the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) publication, Chemistry World, on the “Strategy for delivering chemistry-fuelled growth of the UK economy”.

Outcomes

You will have studied what can perhaps be considered to be “the central science”. You will have developed knowledge of the main areas of chemistry, good practical skills, literacy & numeracy skills, use of IT skills and you should be capable of logical, scientific, critical thinking and problem solving. These skills will make you well equipped for the workplace, be it in a chemistry environment or the wider world of work in general, or for further study on our BSc or MChem programmes.

Further training

The successful HNC chemistry student will be fully capable of further study and training at either HND, BSc or MChem level.
