Postgraduate studentsInformation for current and prospective postgraduate students at the School of Chemistry The School of Chemistry is located at the University of Melbourne's
main campus at Parkville in Victoria, Australia. We also have research
staff located at the Bio21 Institute of Molecular Science and Biotechnology
building at Parkville.
The School has an excellent international reputation in research
and an outstanding record of achievement in attracting external research
funding.
There is an ongoing program to keep our research facilities at world
standard and to focus our research efforts. This has involved
the progressive upgrading of the School's laboratories, the purchase
of state-of-the-art instrumentation and recruitment of academics with
a strong research profile. In addition, we are building stronger
links with other disciplines in the University and with other research
institutions locally and internationally.
We have currently more than 100 BSc (Hons), PhD and MSc research
students at the School. There are 24 continuing research and teaching
staff, and over 30 research only staff, supported by a similar number
of technical and administrative personnel. Further information about
our staff is available. Prospective postgraduate studentsIt is important to make contact with academics in the research groups
which best represent your area of interest, as acceptance
into a postgraduate program depends on available supervision and ultimately,
on an agreed research topic with your supervisor.
Further information about the research
currently being undertaken in the School of Chemistry, as well as
the School's research
facilities, is available. Postgraduate coursesThe School of Chemistry offers three postgraduate courses: a Doctor
of Philosophy, a Master of Science (Research) and a Postgraduate Diploma
in Science - Chemistry. Find out more about these postgraduate
courses.

academic staff directly and discuss
your research interests with them. Further information about the research
currently being undertaken by each of the research staff within
the School is available.
