Chemistry Student Services
There are a wide range of support services for students at the University, Faculty and School level. There are additional services offered by the Department of Chemistry for those studying chemistry.
Course and Career Advice
All students are encouraged to seek course/career advice from course/subject coordinators. The subjects you choose for second and third year will significantly impact upon your future study and employment options. It is a good idea to seek course advice in second semester of each year of study for subjects to be taken in the following year.
For general course advice, contact the relevant course coordinator or Faculty Office. For course or subject specific advice, you should seek specific advice from the course or subject coordinator. Academic staff can offer advice on course and subject selection as well as chemistry career advice. Students should consider undertaking a major in chemistry, as particularly a fourth year honours program.
Research facilities
The Department has a wide range of modern research instruments and facilities for staff and student use.
