Undergraduate study

Chemistry at Sussex was ranked in the top 15 in the UK in The Guardian University Guide 2012The Times Good University Guide 2012 and The Complete University Guide 2011-12. In the 2008 Research Assessment Exercise (RAE), 95 per cent of our chemistry research was rated as recognised internationally or higher, and over half rated as internationally excellent or higher. 

We believe that the best teaching is linked to research and we ensure that our degrees are dynamic and up to date. Our leading scientists show how cutting-edge findings place Life Sciences centre stage in global challenges from environmental change to health in old age. 

Our students are from many educational backgrounds. We value this diversity and understand the importance of getting to know students as individuals.
