Our research
Research in the School of Chemistry
The Chemistry Department has an active research program which spans all sub-disciplines of Chemistry. There are a great many inter- departmental and international research programmes currently underway.
Research topics have been grouped into several main sections (below), however there is a great deal of overlap between these sections.
Research income is earned from national, international and commercial sources and the Department holds grants in a number of research programmes funded by the European community. Several groups are involved in networks of European laboratories, often as co-ordinators. The College fosters an interdisciplinary approach to research and members of the Department have strong links with colleagues in the physical, technological and biological sciences throughout the College.
