Applied Chemistry

1) Study Duration: 4 years

2) Cultivation Mode: 3 years in NUIST Reading Academy and 1 year in UoR, or 4 years in NUIST Reading Academy

3) Intake: September 2019

4) Programme Overview: The programme is designed to provide a broad and rigorous study of modern chemistry through an internationally coordinated teaching approach. The programme will focus on some advanced topics across the branches of organic, inorganic, physical and analytical chemistry. In addition students will refine their laboratory techniques in preparation for an open ended investigative project in one of the above areas of chemistry. The programme will also give students the opportunity to develop transferable skills for employment and to enhance their English language skills through chemical applications. The programme provides an excellent foundation to further research studies in chemistry or to employment in the chemical industry..

5) Required Education Background: Science related background

6) Tuition: CNY 48,000 per year (When study in the UK, students will be charged the standard student fees by UoR)
