About the course

The BSc (Honours) in Analytical Chemistry with Quality Assurance (ACQUA) prepares students for careers in the biopharmachemical industries and other areas such as environmental monitoring, food/beverage, oil and gas analysis, forensics, etc. Graduates identify and solve analytical problems by the selection and use of a wide range of methods and techniques – from the mainstream areas of spectroscopy, chromatography, and electrochemistry, to more specialised areas such as particle size analysis or immunoassay techniques.

　　Analytical Chemistry is the speciality dealing with devising, selecting, and using methods for determining the identity and quantity of chemical composition of samples such as drugs, medicines, food and beverage, water, air etc. These have key components that are present at very low levels or concentrations, and many sophisticated techniques have been developed for their detection and analysis.

　　This honours degree also focuses on quality assurance, which is of vital importance to the biopharmaceutical, chemical and allied industries. The course is examined using a combination of continuous assessment of both theory and practical work, and end of year examinations. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
