MPhil in Chemistry - Energy, Environmental and Sustainable Chemistry

The MPhil is a two-year course designed for those students and professionals who have a degree in Chemistry or an allied subject. During the first year, you will take taught modules, while Year 2 focuses on full-time research. In the two-year period, you will gain both excellent theoretical training in Chemistry and develop high-level research skills by carrying out two research projects:
a summer research project undertaken during the summer of Year 1 which culminates in 15,000-word dissertation, a full-year research project in Year 2 culminating in a dissertation of no more than 60,000 words. Students typically choose to take this course to strengthen both their core understanding of chemistry and their practical research experience. In most cases, it is intended that students will go on to study for a PhD degree after completing the MPhil course.
MPhil: normally of two years duration. Year 1 involves a taught component and a research project. Year 2 focuses on full-time research leading to a dissertation of no more than 60,000 words.

Two of the defining challenges of this century that Chemistry can tackle are (i) the need for secure energy supplies and (ii) limiting society's reliance on non-sustainable fossil-fuel derived feedstocks. Central to these challenges is (i) the development of renewable energy-generation and storage technologies, and (ii) the development of sustainable methods, that improve existing processes and make use of renewable resources. Energy, Environmental and Sustainable Chemistry research draws upon our expertise in core techniques such as electrochemistry, new materials, spectroscopy, structure, catalysis, computation and gas separation to tackle these challenges.
