This analytical chemistry masters is structured around a solid core comprised of the three main analytical techniques – Mass spectrometry, NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Each of these techniques contains a number of key common themes (data collection, analysis and management). Analytical Chemistry is the largest employment area for the chemical sciences. The Instrumental Analytical Chemistry MSc gives you a boost to your bachelor’s degree that significantly increases your employability. We offer an advanced, instrumentation-driven postgraduate education in modern analytical chemistry with some elements in combination with one or more specialist research areas such as synthesis or data science. Modules within the analytical chemistry master’s programme make use of a range of learning teaching and assessment methods based around a core of lectures, practical experimentation (small group and individual), private research and study. As well as summative coursework assignments, many modules will also make use of formative coursework in the form of short reports and presentations. Formative development will be in the form of reflective, peer group and tutor-led exercises – both theoretical and practical. With a masters in analytical chemistry you could find employment with: Government agencies; Publicly funded research councils; Hospitals; Public health laboratories; Environmental agencies; Specialist research organisations; Consultancies; Testing companies; Private food, materials, polymers, biotechnology, pharmaceutical and chemical companies; and Petrochemical companies.
