SCIENCE at one of Medway's universities is expanding and six new jobs have been created.
The University of Greenwich at Medway will expand its specialist staffing in the School of Science.
Three additional lecturers will be appointed, to teach analytical science, pharmaceutical sciences and physical chemistry. The university is also seeking a part-time lecturer in environmental science, who will replace an existing member of staff.
Three new technicians will also join the university and two will help to run the chemistry teaching laboratory. In pharmaceutical sciences, a new technician will set up laboratory classes and help students with their projects.
Dr John Newbery, head of the School of Science, said: "At a time when many universities are closing science subjects, especially chemistry, I am delighted this university is increasing its investment in science.
"Since the School of Science moved to Medway in 2002, it has grown steadily each year and is making a real contribution to the regeneration of this region."
