- Books - You should be able to access most of the books you’ll need through our libraries, and all material for the course will be provided electronically.
- Printing – Black and white printing costs 4p per side.
- PPE – the department shall provide eye protection and lab coats as required, for use within the laboratory facilities.
- Laptops – Although there are PCs available for your use in our computer labs, you may wish to purchase your own laptop, read more about our recommended specification.
- Calculator - While the calculator you used for your former study is usually sufficient some students will choose to purchase a new calculator which will cost around £10.
Please note that these figures are approximate and subject to change.
