Course summary

Gain a broad education in chemistry and the business environment. You’ll be prepared for a career in scientific or management areas.

This course allows you to combine your love of chemistry with an interest in how business works. You’ll gain a broad education in chemistry with an understanding of the theories of chemical behaviour and how they're applied. You'll also develop skills in experimental chemistry and in designing experiments to test hypothesis.

At least a quarter of the credits you’ll study will be management topics, delivered by the School of Management. You’ll develop an understanding of the social, legal and economic implications of the decisions managers in industry are required to make.

Flexib;le course
You can specialise in a particular field through optional chemistry and management units and a project. You’ll draw upon the expertise of academics in both the School of Management and Department of Chemistry, and could even contribute to our research. Our chemistry degrees have the same core units in the first year giving you the flexibility to switch courses before the second year.

BSc or MSci
The MSci degree provides you with the same core skills and knowledge of the BSc but with a greater exposure to research and advanced practical techniques, including a major research project throughout the final year, and with a professional placement.

Entry requirements

Qualification requirements

UCAS Tariff - Not accepted

A level - AAB - AAA

Typical offer: If you study Chemistry and TWO other mathematics or science subjects: - AAB in three A levels including A in Chemistry and two other science or mathematics subjects. If you study Chemistry and only ONE other maths or science subject: - AAA in three A levels including Chemistry and one other science or mathematics subject. Contextual offer: If you study Chemistry and at least TWO other maths or science subjects: - ABC in three A levels including A in Chemistry and BC in two other science or mathematics subjects. If you study Chemistry and only ONE other maths or science subject: - ABB in three A levels including A in Chemistry and B in one other science or mathematics subject. Contextual offers are automatic - if you receive an offer and meet our eligibility criteria, you will receive the contextual offer instead of our typical or alternative offers. If you study four or more subjects and could meet both the ABC and ABB set of requirements, our contextual offer will normally be the lower of the two (ABC). Alternative offer with additional study: ABB in three A levels including A in Chemistry and two other science or mathematics subjects plus additional study - please see the course pages on our website. If you study Chemistry and only one other maths or science subject: AAB in three A levels including A in Chemistry and B in one other science or mathematics subject plus additional study - please see the course pages on our website.

Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Extended Diploma (first teaching from September 2016) - DDD

Typical offer: DDD in the BTEC Level 3 National Extended Diploma (RQF) in Applied Science. You must be studying the following units as part of your BTEC qualification: Applications of Organic Chemistry, Applications of Inorganic Chemistry and Industrial Chemical Reactions. We prefer you to have also studied Practical Chemical Analysis. Suitable applicants progressing via this route will be invited to interview as part of the admissions process.

Access to HE Diploma - D: 36 credits M: 3 credits P: 6 credits

Typical offer: A pass in the Access to HE Diploma, with at least 36 credits achieved at Distinction and at least 3 credits achieved at Merit or above. The 36 credits must include at least 12 credits in Chemistry units achieved at Distinction (including units in both Organic and Inorganic Chemistry, but excluding Biochemistry) and a further 12 credits in Mathematics, Physics or Biology units achieved at Distinction. Suitable applicants progressing via this route will be invited to interview as part of the admissions process.

Scottish Advanced Higher - AA - AB

Typical offer: AA or AB in Advanced Highers If you study Chemistry and a second science or mathematics subject: - AB in two Advanced Highers including A in Chemistry and a second science or mathematics subject. If Chemistry is your only science or mathematics Advanced Higher: - AA in two Advanced Highers including Chemistry. We make offers based on Advanced Highers. You will typically be expected to have completed five Scottish Highers and your grades in these will be considered as part of your application. We prefer applicants who have achieved at least AAAAB in their Highers.

International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme - 36 points

Typical offer: 36 points overall and 6, 6, 5 in three Higher Level subjects including 6 in Chemistry and 5 in a second science or mathematics course. We accept either HL Mathematics course and Sports, Exercise and Health Sciences as a second science or mathematics subject for this degree. Standard Level in essential subjects Chemistry is required at Higher Level. If you are not studying a second science or mathematics subject at Higher Level and you are taking it at Standard Level we may be able to consider you. In this case, the typical offer is 36 points with 6, 5, 5 in three Higher Level subjects including 6 in Chemistry plus 7 in the Standard Level subject. Standard Level Mathematics: Applications & Interpretations cannot be accepted as a second science or mathematics subject. Contextual offer: 35 points overall and 6, 5, 4 in three Higher Level subjects including 6 in Chemistry and 5 in a second science or mathematics course. We accept either HL Mathematics course and Sports, Exercise and Health Sciences as a second science or mathematics subject for this degree. Contextual offers are automatic - if you receive an offer and meet our eligibility criteria, you will receive the contextual offer instead of our typical or alternative offers. Standard Level in essential subjects You must study Chemistry and a second science or mathematics subject at Higher Level to be eligible for a contextual offer for this course.

T Level - D

Typical offer: Distinction overall with grade A in the core component in a Science T Level PLUS grade A in A level Chemistry. You must be studying A level Chemistry alongside your T Level qualification. We are able to consider the above T Level technical qualification in Science. We cannot consider T Level in Healthcare Science for this course. Your GCSE profile will be an important part of selection if you apply with a T Level. You will also be required to undertake an interview as part of the application process if your application is assessed as suitable.

GCSE requirements:
GCSE Mathematics grade 6 or B
GCSE English Language or Literature grade 4 or C (or equivalent from English language category C)
You do not need the required grade in GCSE Mathematics if you study a higher level qualification in Mathematics (such as an A level, AS level or a Core Mathematics qualification).
