Course summary

Train as a chemist for the industries of the future. This three-year degree combines traditional chemistry with computational skills 鈥� an emerging specialism that is increasingly valued by employers across a large range of fields. Data science, AI and machine learning are allowing scientists to make discoveries and run experiments faster and at lower cost. On this degree you鈥檒l gain the chemistry knowledge and computing skills you need to join this fast-growing field. You don鈥檛 need previous computing knowledge, as your programming training will be tailored to your level. By the time you graduate you鈥檒l be able to: - write your own programs - use state-of-the-art software to analyse big data - look at digital simulations of molecules in incredible detail Southampton is one of just a few UK universities where you can study this subject to an advanced level.


Supporting your studies

You鈥檒l be part of a supportive Chemistry community, with a personal academic tutor to provide any extra help you need, both academically and personally. Your tutorial group will be small, so you鈥檒l have plenty of time and attention from your tutors.


Outstanding undergraduate laboratories

Take advantage of our recently refurbished laboratories, which opened in 2019 as part of a 拢12m investment in Chemistry鈥檚 facilities. In this spacious, modern environment you鈥檒l gain hands-on practical experience of equipment such as NMR and IR spectrometers and X-ray diffractometers. There are also laptops for each student so that you can record your practical work. It鈥檚 the same high-tech equipment you鈥檒l find in industry or academic labs, and you鈥檒l learn to make and analyse your own samples, with full support and training 鈥� all excellent preparation for your future career. You鈥檒l also be trained in the specific requirements of high-performance computing.


Learn about research as it happens

Southampton is a Russell Group university, this means you鈥檒l learn from staff who are using AI and digital modelling to benefit society; for example by improving renewable energy technologies and supporting research into the treatment of disease. They will share their expertise with you, bringing the most up-to-date knowledge to your seminars and lectures, and you鈥檒l be able to take part in their research during your individual project work. In addition, our leading role in the UK鈥檚 AI for Scientific Discovery Network will give you access to seminars with leading data and computer scientists.


Your career

There are a large number of roles outside of scientific research where a strong scientific underpinning is beneficial. This bachelor鈥檚 level degree gives an excellent grounding in chemistry and how computation and data management can have a positive impact. There is growing demand for this skillset, with every branch of industry and research looking to harness the potential of AI, computer modelling and big data. You'll be able to pursue a career in any area of the chemical industry, including sectors like: pharmaceutical; biomedical; renewable energy; manufacturing. You鈥檒l also be able to explore wider ranging careers in areas like: programming and software development; project management; scientific journalism; scientific sales; teaching. If you鈥檙e not sure what path to choose, career-focused activities in year two will help you understand the options and map them to your strengths and interests. These activities include talks from industry speakers, giving you a flavour of different career paths. Students interested in teaching can enhance their CVs by volunteering in outreach or chemical education research. There will also be opportunities to get involved in research.
