This subject is the first of two subjects (the other being CH4512) that in combination
constitute the full-year Chemical Sciences Honours degree. The Honours in Chemical
Sciences program is intended for students whose undergraduate major is not necessarily
in Chemistry, but who have a major in another science (or related) discipline and
want to carry out a project where chemical techniques can be applied to that area.
Total effort required to complete this subject is expected to be 520 hours, including
supervisory meetings, experimental work, research, writing, and other work.
Learning Outcomes
- carry out a substantial piece of research and write a dissertation;
- formulate and solve research problems;
- understand theoretical concepts in a broad range of topics which give background to
the research project.
Subject Assessment
- 10% for each of three completed subjects selected with supervisor's approval - (30%) - Individual
