Digital Chemistry: AI, Automation and Data Science MSc

In an era dominated by technological advancements, the relevance of digital chemistry, AI and automation cannot be overstated. Together, digital chemistry and automation enable researchers to explore and understand complex science more efficiently than ever before. Our course emphasises the pivotal role of machine learning, data science and automated experimentation in the future of industrial chemical research, effectively preparing you for a career across a wide range of sectors such as pharmaceuticals, materials and chemical technology. You'll learn how to collect, analyse and exploit large chemical datasets, and how these can be integrated with your chemical knowledge and AI-driven modelling approaches to solve real-world challenges. This dual focus on data generation and interpretation will provide you with the skills required to fully harness the potential of digital chemistry, both computationally and applied in a laboratory setting.

A bachelor degree with a 2:1 (hons) in chemistry, medicinal chemistry, applied or industrial chemistry, biochemistry, chemical engineering or another subject that includes a significant chemistry component.

We also encourage you to apply if you have a 2:2 (hons) in one of the subjects listed above, relevant work experience or professional qualifications. We take a flexible and inclusive approach and consider every application on its individual merits.
