Chemistry is central to solving humanity's most pressing problems - climate change, renewable energy, sustainable materials, and eliminating hunger and disease. Our chemistry degrees help develop the practical, analytical, numerical, and logical reasoning skills you need to help solve these global challenges – and also offer an exciting route into a wide range of future career paths.In this degree, you will undertake a one-year-long industrial placement in Year Three (in the UK or overseas), performing research at a project partner site, away from the university. This will give you invaluable experience of research in the real-world before you return to Warwick to complete Year Four.The fourth year of this MChem degree builds on the experience previous years by enabling students to undertake a significant research project, working with an academic group to help solve important real-world problems drawn from the wide spectrum of the chemical sciences.This course is accredited by the Royal Society of Chemistry, subject to passing required modules.If you are thinking about going into research or industry, this course will give you the opportunity to explore both options and find out what is right for you. You will study at Warwick for your first two years, then apply your understanding through an industrial placement in your third year (acceptance of the placement is subject to academic performance).Supported by our Student Opportunity (Careers) team, you will be fully involved in and responsible for finding a placement.
