Course Details

The Master of Green Chemistry and Sustainable Technologies recognises the increasing demand for graduates with expertise in green chemistry to lead the transformation of chemical and other industries where chemistry and chemical engineering play a crucial role, in delivering the products coming from those industries.

Qualification: Master Degree (By Coursework)

Course structure: The course is structured in four parts. Part A. Green and sustainable technology, Part B. Further studies in chemistry, Part C. Specialist studies in Green and sustainable technologies and Part D. Advanced practice in Green and sustainable technologies.; Part A. Green and sustainable technologies: In these studies, you will be introduced to key concepts in green and sustainable technologies including the design and thinking processes that lead to the production and management of future chemicals in a variety of industries. You will participate in a consultancy projects to gain an authentic perspective in the discipline.; Part B. Further studies in chemistry.; In these studies, you will develop the discipline knowledge and skills in chemistry required to study Parts A and C.; Part C. Specialist studies in green and sustainable technologies.; You will develop expertise through studio-lab studies in design and chemical applications of chemistry. These studies are complemented by a range of units selected to either deepen your knowledge of green chemistry, managing sustainability or engaging with key concepts related to the environment. Part D. Advanced practice in green and sustainable technologies.; You will select a coursework pathway or thesis.; The coursework pathway option includes the opportunity to undertake an internship in industry or a desktop project; these options are studied alongside a choice of listed electives. The second option is to undertake a 24 credit point research project requiring a thesis output.
