Chemistry - The Central Science

Chemistry is a key science because it explores the molecular dimension - how the structure of materials and molecules determines reactions and molecular interactions.

Welcome

The School of Chemistry has active research programs in both pure and applied chemistry.  Major research areas include targeted drug design and synthesis, development of NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry for studying biological processes, atmospheric chemistry, food chemistry, analytical and environmental chemistry, nanomaterials and intelligent polymers.  Undergraduate programs include a Bachelor of Medicinal Chemistry and Bachelor of Nanotechnology alongside the Bachelor of Science.
