Overview

This page covers Medicinal and Biological Chemistry across the departments we work with, including what each asks for and what it charges. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Chemistry is assessed through practical reports as well as written papers, and the lab component is what makes the timetable full. We currently work with 3 universities on this course across 3 cities.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition ranges from £16,800 to £17,200 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.

If you are comparing this against two or three other courses, send us all of them. We will set the entry terms and the fees side by side.
