Master of Philosophy in Chemistry at University of Cambridge

The Department of Chemistry offers the MPhil as a full-time research period and introduces students to research skills and specialist knowledge. Students are integrated into the research culture of the department by joining a research group, supervised by one of our academic staff, in one of the following areas of chemistry: Biological Chemistry Life is the chemistry that goes on inside every one of us. We seek to understand this chemistry, both the physical processes occurring at the molecular level and the chemical reactions, and we also seek to control the chemistry as a way to treat diseases.
