DescriptionChemistry is often referred to as the "central science" as it focuses on the behaviour of matter and the basic substance of which all matter is composed. From harnessing Earth's mineral resources, to developing cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, the value and application of chemistry is unparalleled. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of Chemistry, we encourage you to pursue your interests in the field and the other core sciences. In addition to your Chemistry degree, you may combine your studies with a degree in Biology and/or Education, or a Specialization in Medical Sciences.

As a Chemistry student, you will have the opportunity to explore various areas within the discipline, such as:

  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Biochemistry
  • Inorganic Chemistry
  • Medical Chemistry
  • Organic Chemistry
  • Polymer Chemistry
  • Physical Chemistry
  • Theoretical Chemistry
