Overview

We have been teaching Chemical Physics at University of East Anglia for almost 50 years; today some of the most adventurous scientific activity can be found in this field.

Exciting and intellectually challenging, our BSc degree will introduce you to topics across the full scope of the subject, such as the fabrication and properties of nanoparticles, laser systems and their applications, microsensors, computational modelling and photonics.

You will benefit from our interdisciplinary and coherent approach, which brings together chemistry, physics and mathematics.

We are a leading centre for chemistry research in the UK, with 98% of our research ranked as world-leading or internationally excellent in the most recent Research Excellence Framework (REF 2014). The School of Chemistry’s research themes are light and energy, the chemistry of materials and catalysis, and the chemistry of life processes. These themes influence and run throughout our taught programmes, ensuring you learn at the forefront of research in the field.

Examples of careers that you could enter include;

• Chemical industry

• Research Scientist

• Data Analyst

• Academic

• Teacher
