Description

What is this Environmental Chemistry degree about?...

Public awareness of environmental issues has increased in recent years as global problems such as climate change and ozone layer destruction have gained increasing media coverage. These problems arise from the manner in which society chooses to use its natural and synthetic resources (all of which are chemically-based). 

Environmental chemists seek firstly to understand and then to prevent/minimise or repair damage to our global environment. This Environmental Chemistry degree will equip you with the fundamental skills needed to begin to make a difference in this vital area of science. During the Environmental Chemistry degree you will …

What is this Environmental Chemistry degree about?...

Public awareness of environmental issues has increased in recent years as global problems such as climate change and ozone layer destruction have gained increasing media coverage. These problems arise from the manner in which society chooses to use its natural and synthetic resources (all of which are chemically-based). 

Environmental chemists seek firstly to understand and then to prevent/minimise or repair damage to our global environment. This Environmental Chemistry degree will equip you with the fundamental skills needed to begin to make a difference in this vital area of science. During the Environmental Chemistry degree you will therefore study some relevant degree-level chemistry (from molecular bonding to enzyme function), analytical chemistry skills (trace pollutant measurements and data analysis) and both environmental "green" chemistry and chemistry of the environment. "Green" chemistry can be described as the use of chemical knowledge to develop cleaner processes to reduce pollution (eg CFC replacements). By comparison, chemistry of the environment focuses on studies of natural systems in the atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere and biosphere and describes changes which occur to unpolluted systems when the natural balance is disturbed.

(Please note: Environmental Chemistry degrees with Industrial Experience or European Experience are subject to suitable academic progress and industrial availability)
