3.5-Term Pathway - Foundation Certificate for Science and Engineering - Continue to Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Chemistry

This University of Liverpool programme offers a solid grounding in all aspects of chemistry, while allowing students to incorporate some non-chemical options to broaden their education. All Liverpool programmes have a common chemistry core in the first two years, differing only in optional modules, which can be chosen from chemistry or non-chemistry courses. This provides a good measure of flexibility and choice for students during the first two years. Since students enter the Department with a wide range of experience in mathematics (which is essential for studying chemistry to a high level) Liverpool provides a flexible tiered maths for chemistry course allowing students to develop their skills at their own pace.

By Year Three students will be proficient chemists, and will be able to extend their knowledge in the three traditional branches of chemistry, and students will also be offered a choice of optional chemistry and non-chemistry modules, or modules in science education for those interested in pursuing a career in teaching. Practical modules in Year Three will continue to develop their skills and knowledge learned in the first two years. This may involve conducting mini-projects, relevant in the modern world, developing their skill set to make them industry-ready.
