This programme aims to produce graduates who can contribute to agencies that require the knowledge of chemistry, such as chemical industries and government institutions. Emphasis is given to the application of chemistry in industries, which includes material resources, instrumentation and analysis, chemical processes, technology and the environment. Fundamental knowledge in physical, organic, inorganic and analytical chemistry is strengthened. 

The programme provides the students with relevant skills via hands-on laboratory practical courses and final year research projects. Relevant elective courses will be offered to enrich the knowledge of the students in fields closely related to the chemical industries. At the end of the programme, students are exposed to the industrial environment via industrial internships and industrial visits to selected chemical-based industries to compliment and apply their theoretical chemistry concepts in real world situations.
