MEDICINAL CHEMISTRY AND GEOLOGY - BSC (HONS) at Keele University

This course prepares you to help solve problems at the intersection of chemistry, biochemistry, molecular biology and pharmacology. The goal of medicinal chemistry is to support the search for new drugs to treat conditions such as heart disease and cancer. You’ll work in well-equipped laboratories, and learn to conduct effective independent research. Keele also offers support to find an industrial or research placement for a summer. You’ll develop essential skills for employment, such as problem solving, presentation and communication.

The Geology element of the course, covers geological processes such as earthquakes, volcanoes and plate tectonics, and how these processes produce different geological materials.
