Welcome from the Director of Teaching and Learning (Postgraduate) to the School of Chemistry
Welcome to Trinity College Chemistry Graduate Programme
Chemistry is a pivotal discipline that lies at the crossroads of biological and physical sciences. Chemistry underpins our understanding of the world around us and in doing so helps shape a better future for everyone. As postgraduate students you are at the frontier, working with world-class staff and facilities, creating new knowledge and making exciting discoveries. The modern Ph.D. student is much more than just a specialist in a very narrow area. Today’s graduate must have a broad overview of the science, well-developed problem-solving skills, the confidence to tackle a range of projects outside their particular area of expertise, and be able to communicate their results to both the scientific and lay communities.
Combining innovative research and structured graduate modules, we seek to continue to nurture the next generation of scientists, who will bring new solutions to society by their enhanced understanding and control of new molecules and materials with novel physical or biological properties.
