MSc (Eng) by Research in Computational Chemistry and Chemical Physics

At its most fundamental, chemistry is the 'art' of transforming one molecule into another. This research group builds on the foundations laid by physicists and chemists in the 20th century, by striving to understand and control atomic and molecular motion in chemical reactivity. Modern experimental probes – such as velocity map imaging and femtosecond spectroscopy – have been developed to allow exquisitely detailed probing of chemical reactions involving a small number of atoms with quantum state resolution and temporal resolution on the natural timescale of bond breaking.
