Chemistry with Biomedicine with a Year in Industry

About this programme

Our Chemistry with Biomedicine MSci course will give you a strong theoretical and experimental understanding of chemistry. You’ll explore the different strands of chemistry and apply them to biological and biomedical systems - all under the guidance of our research-led scientists. Alongside this, you’ll gain valuable work experience with the opportunity of a year-long internship at a major UK company. In your final year of the MSci, you’ll explore your interests with an extended research project in our state-of-the-art labs or with our hospital partners. By the end of your studies, you’ll be an articulate, flexible and biomedically-aware chemist, ready for a career in a wide variety of industries, from chemical, biotech and pharmaceutical industries to finance, law and media. This programme adds a further year’s professional internship to our standard four-year Chemistry with Biomedicine MSci. Our Chemistry and Biomedicine MSci with a Year in Industry course integrates a comprehensive grounding in core principles with the skills and understanding to apply this in a broad range of contexts, drawing from active chemical and biomedical research and practice at King’s, and leading to many career options . To take the Year in Industry, you need to meet and maintain a grade threshold and to be successful in securing a year’s professional internship offered by major companies in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, or in finance, banking, management and law, and smaller organisations such as biotech companies. We help prepare you for these competitive year-long placements
