Overview

Bachelor of Science (Chemistry)

The QUT chemistry degree is a qualification that is known and respected by employers. 

Many employers prefer QUT chemistry graduates, especially those with an extension minor in analytical chemistry, because of their advanced technical skills, experience with modern instrumentation, and training in scientific communication. 

The training in analytical chemistry throughout the chemistry degree is renowned nationally.

You will undertake comprehensive laboratory work, including experiments using modern computer-based analytical instruments, and gain knowledge and experience in the health and safety aspects of handling chemicals. 

Highly respected lecturers will guide you; many actively participate in cutting-edge research. 

Highlights

  • Learn the basics before developing a more detailed understanding of analytical, inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry.
  • Complete a research project in your final year, and take field trips to major industrial sites.
  • Choose a degree recognised by employers for its analytical chemistry component and focus on safe laboratory practices.
  • Prepare for a career as an industrial chemist, materials scientist, environmental chemist, quality control analyst, laboratory supervisor, food chemist, or organic/inorganic chemist.
  • Learn in new multimillion-dollar research and teaching facilities.
