What the college says

Chemistry is the study of matter and chemical change. As the central science there are many links to Biology and Physics. Chemists are the key to finding solutions to the problems of today and the future! Chemistry is a fascinating and engaging subject. A day as a Chemist is never the same. One day you may be surrounded by practical equipment analysing the content of some medicines or even creating your own Aspirin. Other days you might be carrying out calculations, writing equations or drawing the structure of the molecules that make up your DNA. Regardless – Chemistry at Consett will always be interesting and challenging, with real world links to real world challenges or new developments in science so that you can see the good that Chemists can do!
