Honours in Chemistry
The Honours program in the Department of Chemistry provides the opportunity to be involved in a research program at the cutting edge of Science and provides training in research techniques and experience with contemporary research instrumentation.
There are many reasons why students should consider Honours.
Chemistry students who obtain a good grade in their third year subjects and meet the entry requirements are invited to proceed to a fourth year Honours in Chemistry.
The Honours outline provides more details on the coursework and research components that make up an Honours year. The discipline of Chemistry is broad in scope and there is a wide variety of project areas to choose from in our department. Indeed most of the projects offered will overlap with several research areas.
