We’re proud to have diverse workforce that is sensitive to both the challenges and aspirations of our student population. Our outstanding researchers and academic staff provide world-class educational opportunities to our students, offering the chance to excel at undergraduate and postgraduate levels within a top rated department.
Welcome to the Department of Pure and Applied Chemistry at the University of Strathclyde. We are proud to build on over two centuries of chemical education and innovation, tracing our roots back to the founding of Anderson’s Institution in 1796.
Today, we continue that legacy through world-class teaching, pioneering research, and strong partnerships with industry and society. Whether you are a prospective student , collaborator , or visitor, we invite you to explore what makes Strathclyde Chemistry a dynamic and inspiring place to study and work.
We have a vibrant mix of enthusiastic students and talented researchers from across Scotland, the UK, Europe and the World.
We've recently invested more than £10 million in our buildings and laboratories so our students, researchers and staff have modern, well-equipped and comfortable facilities.
