Covers modern areas of research in physical chemistry and may include solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), X-ray spectroscopic techniques commonly used in materials science (including synchrotron-based X-ray absorption, emission and scattering techniques), and computational chemistry with applications in heterogeneous catalysis.

Introduces a range of modern methods used in the synthesis and characterisation of nanomaterials (including metal nanoparticles, polymers, ceramics and their nanocomposites), with the application of these nanomaterials in energy conversion, optical devices and biosensing also being explored. Potential risks of nanomaterials in the environment will be discussed.

Covers modern areas of research in inorganic chemistry, and may include main-group catalysis, medicinal inorganic chemistry, supramolecular chemistry and/or inorganic cluster compounds.

Discusses how techniques including NMR spectroscopy, calorimetry, neutron scattering and computational modelling, can characterise the molecular structure, dynamics, and interactions of biological macromolecules. The principles of each technique will be presented and complemented with examples of where these methods have made major advances in understanding important biochemical processes. Accessible to students with a background in chemistry, biology, bioengineering, or physics.
