Chemistry with a Year in Industry

About this course

Chemistry is often called the central science because it sits at the intersection of physics, biology, medicine, and materials science, providing the molecular understanding that underpins all of them. It asks how matter is structured, how substances react and transform, and how we can design new materials and processes to solve practical problems. From developing medicines to creating sustainable energy sources, from understanding environmental change to engineering advanced materials, chemistry is fundamental to the most important challenges facing the modern world. At the University of Leeds, this four-year full-time programme includes a year in industry, which means you will spend an extended period working in a professional chemical or related organisation before completing your degree. The programme begins with a foundation year, providing a structured entry point that builds the
