COURSE CURRICULUM

The Bachelor of Science with a Chemistry major is designed for students who want to explore the principles of matter, chemical processes, and the role of chemistry in solving real-world challenges. The program provides a strong foundation in scientific knowledge, laboratory skills, analytical thinking, and research methods. Students begin with core science courses that develop essential skills in programming, multidisciplinary laboratory practice, mathematics, statistics, and work-integrated learning before progressing into specialised chemistry studies. The Chemistry major includes key courses such as Introductory Chemistry I, Introductory Chemistry II, Applied Analytical Chemistry, and Physical Chemistry, which build understanding of chemical structures, reactions, analytical techniques, and the physical principles that govern chemical systems. Through practical laboratory experiences and theoretical learning, students develop skills in experimentation, data interpretation, problem-solving, and scientific communication. The program prepares graduates for careers in areas including chemical research, environmental science, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, quality control, materials science, and industrial chemistry. Students also benefit from flexible study options, allowing them to complement their chemistry studies with other scientific disciplines and electives. With opportunities for industry engagement and research experiences, graduates develop the knowledge and practical skills needed to contribute to scientific innovation and address complex challenges in modern society.
