the School of Chemistry Transition Year (TY) activities take place every year towards the end of April. This week of activities is designed to provide students with an understanding of the diversity of programmes offered by the school, ranging from Forensic, Pharmaceutical, Analytical, Organic, Physical, and Inorganic Chemistry.

This diversity is showcased through a variety of engaging activities, including workshops, laboratory tours, and hands-on experiments. The week also features discussions on career opportunities and highlights how our chemistry programmes can open pathways to research and professional careers across multiple fields.

To give you a flavour of the TY programme, last year’s activities included sessions on Green and Sustainable Chemistry practices, demonstrations of a Lab-in-a-Suitcase for forensic applications, analytical experiments, career discussions, and hands-on organic chemistry experiments.

Please note that the activities vary from year to year.
