See liverpool.ac.uk/yearinchinafor more information.How you learnLaboratory classes in Years One and Twoprepare you for independent laboratory workin Years Three and Four. In Year Three youwill carry out mini research projects, while inYear Four you will carry out research alongsidePhD and postdoctoral researchers on cuttingedge projects, often leading to a first scientificpublication. Computational modelling andmolecular visualisation are introduced asinteractive animated models from Year One,reinforced as a key skill in later years and byYear Four of MChem programmes you willbe able to perform your own calculationsto underpin final year research projects.Languages at LiverpoolStudying a programme within Chemistry allowsyou to study a language as an extracurricularcourse on top of your degree, or as a modulefor credit within your degree. See liverpool.ac.uk/languages for more information.
How you are assessedYou are assessed by examination at the end ofeach semester (January and May/June) and bycontinuous assessment of laboratory practicals,class tests, workshops, tutorials and assignments.You have to pass each year of study before youare allowed to progress to the following year.Re-sit opportunities are available in Septemberat the end of Years One and Two. If you takean industrial placement, a minimum standardof academic performance is required beforeyou are allowed to embark on your placements.You are expected to perform at a 2:1 level if youwish to continue on a MChem programme. Allyears of study (with the exception of Year One)contribute to the final degree classification.The fact that the University ofLiverpool’s Chemistry Departmenthas established itself as one ofthe top in the country and has afabulous reputation, with a strongfocus on research, was one of themain reasons I chose to studymy MChem degree at Liverpool.Being taught by staff carrying outworld leading research in theirrespective fields, who are all veryfriendly, means help and supportis always available. The ChemistryDepartment’s facilities are secondto none, such as the state-of theart Central Teaching Labs whichgive you the opportunity to workwith highly advanced analyticalequipment on a regular basis fromthe minute you start your studies.Adam TollittChemistry MChem/Universityof Liverpool@livuniUofLTube03Goodto know1271stfirst year students (2018).Ranked 1st in the UK for 4* and 3* research(THE 2014).97%are employed or in further study withinsix months of graduating (DLHE 2016/17).96%overall satisfaction at programme level forChemistry MChem (NSS 2017, Universityof Liverpool analysis of unpublished data).5thin The Times, 7th in the Guardian and 12thin the Complete University Guide (2018).We offer study abroadopportunities.We offer a Year in China.We offer accreditedprogrammes.Chemistry liverpool.ac.uk/chemistry@comingtolivuni

Visits to theDepartment by leading companies such as GlaxoSmithKline andUnilever ensure that you make contact with prospective employersat key stages in your final year. Graduates find employment in manyareas, from the pharmaceutical industry to business management.Typical careers of our graduates include assistant analyst,development chemist, research assistant and site chemist.Recent employersGlaxoSmithKlineUnileverIOTA Nanosolutions LtdPerstorp CaprolactonesShellTowers WatsonUnited Utilities.Work experience opportunitiesStudents who take up the paid year in industrialresearch find it provides an excellent foundationfor the final year at university and subsequentemployment or postgraduate research. Thereare also opportunities for summer employmentin the Department.Postgraduate opportunitiesThe Department offers a range of Mastersopportunities and its Research School is oneof the largest in the UK offering opportunitiesfor PhD study drawing on the specialisms ofmembers of staff. The School is particularlywell-known for its work in:Chemistry at the Biology InterfaceMedicinal/Pharmaceutical ChemistryCatalysis and Surface ScienceElectrochemistry and PhotochemistrySolid State and Materials ChemistryNanoscale ScienceComputational and Theoretical ChemistryRenewable Energy and Sustainable Chemistry.A standout factor influencing my decision was the CentralTeaching Laboratories; they offer outstanding facilities to performundergraduate lab experiments, using advanced equipment, whichis not always the case in some departments. The atmosphere is awelcoming and inclusive one, thanks to the fantastic academics,lecturers and student support team, who are always willing tolend a helping hand with any academic queries as well as offeringpastoral support. There is a huge range of subsidiary modules,from physics to pharmacology; allowing each student to shapetheir own studies and get a unique experience.Oliver Penrhyn-LoweChemistry MChem

This provides a goodmeasure of flexibility and choice for you duringthe first two years.Thus, Years One and Two of this programmeare largely identical to those of the MChemChemistry (F102) programme (they differ onlyin one course being compulsory for MChemstudents and optional for BSc students). If youdecide during this first 18 months that you wantto aim for a research career in Chemistry, thenyou can transfer to the MChem Chemistry (F102)programme provided you have obtained anaverage mark at the 2:1 level or above (60%).By Year Three you will be a proficient chemist,and you will be able to extend your knowledgein the three traditional branches of chemistryand you will also be offered a choice of optionalchemistry and non-chemistry modules, or modulesin science education for those interested inpursuing a career in teaching. Practical modulesin Year Three will continue to develop your skillsand knowledge learnt in the first two years. Thismay involve conducting mini-projects, relevantin the modern world, developing your skillset to make you industry-ready.
Key modulesYear OneSee “Modules at a glance” page 14-15.In the first year, you will take modules thatcover the fundamentals of inorganic, organicand physical chemistry, plus necessary key skills.Four chemistry modules combine theoreticaland practical aspects and one chemistry moduledevelops quantitative and general key skills.You will spend three to six hours per week in thelaboratory and so will receive a comprehensivetraining in practical aspects of the subject.In addition, you will have a choice of 30 creditsof subsidiary modules from other Departmentsincluding Environmental Sciences, Life Sciences(Anatomy, Molecular biology, Biochemistry,Pharmacology or Physiology), Mathematics,Physics and Archaeology. There are also optionalcourses within chemistry covering, for examplethe chemistry-biology interface, and in the secondsemester you can opt to take a research inspiredcourse Innovative chemistry for energy andmaterials delivered by staff in the StephensonInstitute for Renewable Energy.Year TwoSee “Modules at a glance” page 16-17.You will learn more advanced topics within allthe main branches of chemistry and continueto develop your quantitative and key skills.Practical skills will be developed throughstand-alone practical modules and you willhave the opportunity to spend between sixand nine hours per week in the laboratory.Year ThreeSee “Modules at a glance” page 18-21.In your final year you will continue to studythe three main branches of chemistry, organic,inorganic and physical chemistry, but theemphasis is on the application of chemistryto the modern world. You will also furtherdevelop skills to enhance your employabilityand general chemistry skills, including a moduleon Further key skills and Molecular modelling./Universityof Liverpool@livuniUofLTube07Chemistry MChemUCAS code: F102Programme length: 4 yearsDo you want to pursue a high-level researchcareer as a professional chemist?
