The School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering focuses on advancing eco-friendly processes and innovative materials to address tomorrow's energy and medical needs. With rapid growth underway, the School is generating numerous promising research prospects, supported by over £15 million in funding to enhance key disciplines like catalysis, biological and medicinal chemistry, and materials science.
Program Overview
Your research will contribute to strengthening our Sustainability and Healthcare initiatives, leveraging chemical sciences to build a more environmentally friendly and health-conscious world. Our research spans pioneering work in catalysis (bridging chemistry with engineering and other fields, novel Molecular and Functional Materials), ionic liquid applications (non-volatile 'super solvents' serving as cleaner alternatives to traditional solvents), and Synthetic Biological Organic Chemistry (developing compounds that influence cellular processes).
