Students who meet the requirements specified above, and who meet all other programme requirements, will be given automatic entry into Honours programmes.
See: www.st-andrews.ac.uk/media/teaching-and-learning/policies/honsentry.pdf )
The general requirements are 480 credits over a period of normally four years (and not more than five years) or part-time equivalent, of which the final two years form an approved Honours programme of 240 credits, of which 90 credits are at 4000 level and at least a further 120 credits at 3000 and/or 4000 levels.

Unless otherwise stated, all degree programmes in Chemistry are accredited by the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) for professional membership.
Direct entry into Level 2000 is possible, in which case credit of 120 credits at Level 1000 is given on the basis of school examinations.
In the case of students who spend part of the Honours programme on a recognised Study Abroad scheme, the Programme Requirements will be amended to take into account overseas courses which are approved by the relevant St Andrews School in the Learning Agreement (see www.st-andrews.ac.uk/students/study-abroad/academic ).
