MPhil Inorganic Chemistry at University of Manchester

Explore the periodic table in depth. Inorganic chemistry research at The University of Manchester covers molecular chemistry, materials chemistry, catalysis, radiochemistry, spectroscopy, and magnetism across the entire periodic table, from the structure and bonding of lanthanide and actinide complexes to functional porous materials to transition metal clusters to transition metal and main group complexes for catalysis. As a postgraduate researcher on this MPhil, you'll develop a thesis on a defined topic within this Department of Chemistry research theme.
