Objectives
The MChem and BSc Chemistry degree courses are identical during Years One and Two. The real decision – whether to continue to a BSc or MChem – is made at the end of the second year. Candidates need to obtain at least a lower second class pass in their second year to proceed to the MChem degree.

Entry requirements
General university admissions requirements All applicants must possess a minimum level of competence in English Language and in Mathematics or a Science. A pass at Grade C or above in GCSE English Language and in Mathematics or a Science, or an equivalent qualification, fulfils this requirement. For some courses, requirements are above this University minimum, so you should check the relevant course-specific entry requirements in our hard copy prospectus which you can order online or browse on our online directory. We usually ask for candidates to show a broad base of study at GCSE level (or equivalent) with passes in at least five subjects from a range of disciplines.
