Chemistry

About this course

Chemistry is the science of matter, investigating the substances that make up the physical world, how they are structured at the atomic and molecular level, and how they transform through chemical reactions. It is a discipline that sits at the heart of modern science, underpinning advances in medicine, materials, energy, agriculture, and environmental protection. Studying chemistry develops rigorous analytical thinking, quantitative reasoning, and practical laboratory skills that are valued across a wide range of scientific and professional careers. At the University of Northumbria at Newcastle, this three-year full-time programme covers the core branches of the discipline, including organic, inorganic, and physical chemistry, alongside analytical techniques, spectroscopy, computational chemistry, and laboratory practice. You will develop expertise in experimental design and data analys
