As an overseas chemist, applying for a postdoc or further study in the UK will provide you with a wealth of opportunities, from expanding your chemical knowledge to developing new skills.  The related links box provides access to a range of websites giving you an insight into how to deal with some of the day to day issues faced by international students and postdocs.

Joining the RSC will allow you to access a range of member-only benefits, such as conference discounts, travel bursaries and a range of other benefits, and help you to build a network of contacts in the UK.
