Postgraduate Diploma in Chemistry

Chemistry Major (Postgraduate Diploma)

Introduction

The Postgraduate Diploma in Chemistry develops a more critical and problem-solving approach to the professional practice of chemistry than is possible to achieve in a first qualification. Presently there is a definite need for professional chemists with such qualifications. The course forms a basis for the professional development of experts able to cope with sophisticated research and development problems in industry.

Notes:

To enrol in this course you will need to apply for the Postgraduate Diploma in Science – School of Science and Computing (310850) with a Chemistry major.
You will graduate with a Postgraduate Diploma in Science (Chemistry).
