About Chemistry with Biological and Medicinal Chemistry, BSc - at University of Sheffield

This specialist course has been designed to prepare you for the growing demands of the healthcare sector and pharmaceutical industry. As well as essential chemistry topics, you'll study specialist topics such as pharmacokinetics, toxicology and drug design. You'll learn to use industry-standard commercial software and spend your final year working on your own research project.

The course is accredited by the Royal Society of Chemistry, which means that you can acquire a range of skills and knowledge that employers look for as you work independently, in teams and on a range of projects.

We cover a wide range of topics based on the latest concepts and findings in chemistry, and the skills and expertise that chemistry graduates can offer industry and society. As well as biological and medicinal chemistry, these include:

  • environmental and sustainable chemistry
  • advanced materials and nanotechnology
  • astrochemistry
  • computational chemistry

Your lectures in first and second year are supported by small group tutorials, where you can delve deeper into complex topics. These small group teaching sessions are led by your personal tutor in first year, and specialist experts in later years. In addition, your personal tutor will also help you work out which skills you need to develop and support you as you build up your experience in time for graduation.

If you want to study chemistry, but don't meet the entry requirements to go straight into the first year of this course, you may be able to apply for our Chemistry with a Foundation Year course. Finish the year-long foundation programme with an average mark of 60 or above, and you're guaranteed entry onto the first year of your chosen chemistry degree at the University of Sheffield.
