About this course

Chemistry is often described as the central science because it sits between the physical and life sciences, connecting the mathematical precision of physics to the complexity of biological systems. Combining it with computing reflects how the practice of chemistry has been transformed in recent decades: computational methods now play an increasingly important role in both scientific research and the chemical industry, from molecular simulation and drug design to materials discovery and process optimisation. Chemists who can work computationally alongside their experimental skills are among the most versatile and sought-after graduates in the sciences. At Loughborough University this five-year full-time programme develops your understanding of chemistry across its core branches, including organic, inorganic, and physical chemistry, alongside computing skills in programming, data analysis
