Chemistry with Management Studies MSci

About

Course overview

Chemistry with Management Studies is offered either as a three-year BSc or as a four-year MSci. The first two years of study are identical, so you can defer which to opt for until the end of your second year. We advise you to select the four-year MSci programme initially as this keeps more options open.

The chemistry content directly follows that of the Chemistry MSci programme. You will be exposed to the full breadth of chemistry with an emphasis on developing core chemical skills. You will also take modules in mathematics appropriate to your prior qualification, together with further optional modules.

The Management component of the course takes up around 25% of the whole programme including a range of compulsory modules in years 1, 2 and 3.

In your final year you will undertake an extended project in one of our world leading research groups. You will also study advanced optional modules of your choosing including advanced Management modules.

What this course will give you

Consistently regarded as one of the best Chemistry departments in the UK (ranked 4th in the UK by the QS World University Rankings by Subject 2023: Chemistry), we offer you an excellent education with high standards of teaching.

You will benefit from our outstanding research profile as you are taught by lecturers who are experts in a wide range of chemistry-related fields.

The MSci allows you to study more advanced topics and to work on an extended research project within one of our internationally renowned research groups.

The UCL School of Management contributes to this and many other programmes across UCL and you will have the opportunity to work alongside students taking many different degree programmes.

We offer access to state-of-the-art facilities, enhanced by our strong affiliation with other centres of excellence such as the London Centre for Nanotechnology.

This four-year programme offers an additional year on top of the Chemistry with Management Studies BSc in which to investigate both disciplines in greater depth. The programme offers a thorough grounding in management skills while all major aspects of chemistry are explored and developed.
