Chemistry-Physics Degrees

I’m taking biology, chemistry and maths. If I wanted to do something akin to material science or astrochemistry, am I able to? I’ve made a mistake with my choices at A-Level, I should have dropped biology rather than physics. 🥲

Astrochemistry is also too specialised for undergraduate level, I would note, and doesn't really exist until graduate level.

Some materials science courses may accept someone with no physics background but with a chemistry and maths background, and just require you do a certain physics module in first year; I believe this was the format at Loughborough previously. Some may also not formally require any physics background, such as materials science via natural sciences at Cambridge (although you'd probably be an unusual case then).

For something more physics focused (e.g. chemical physics, or physics itself) you would most likely need physics, but may still be able to pursue the course via a foundation year route.

So I doubt you have much to worry about really.

Thanks! I’m going to look into the option of taking modules for the physics alongside a chemistry degree. Do you have to take a physics foundation year on the first year you go to a university or can you take it later on when you start to drift to chemistry-physics related specialisations?
