Analytical Chemistry

Analytical chemistry is a sub-discipline of chemistry in the physical sciences subject domain. It involves the development and application of qualitative and quantitative methods for the identification and determination of the composition of matter, respectively. It, therefore, plays a central role in the chemical and allied industries.

This Analytical Chemistry Higher Diploma program covers the implementation of analytical instruments and processes used to separate, identify, and quantify chemical matter. Those skilled in analytical chemistry deduce chemical structures as well as their behaviour in differing conditions. 

The Analytical Chemistry program covers a variety of purposes including drug development, forensic analysis, and toxicology. Research and development (R&D) of formulation and processes is key to continually improving end products. Analytical chemistry has become an important function to help a company gather the needed information to move a product from development into the commercialisation phase.

A Higher Diploma in Analytical Chemistry opens up new opportunities in a variety of areas at the workplace:

• Quality assurance specialists ensure that laboratories follow documented and approved procedures.
• Quality control experts ensure the quality of the products that laboratories produce.
• Chemists with solid technical and computer skills development and use complex analytical techniques. 
• Government agencies need analytical chemists to verify compliance with regulatory requirements. 
• Entrepreneurial analytical chemists may start their own businesses, specializing in particular kinds of analyses or classes of compounds.
