Chemical Research Project

Module code: CHE700P

Credits: 150.0
Semester: YEAR

Contact: Dr Cristina Giordano

This module involves students carrying-out an original piece of experimental or computational research on projects agreed with their academic supervisor. Projects are in the areas of biological, organic, inorganic, physical, materials or theoretical/computational chemistry; or a combination thereof. The work also involves an in-depth and critical evaluation and dissemination of the relevant literature associated with the topic and methodologies employed.

A dissertation is prepared and defended in an oral examination (mid-September); students also present their work in the form of a ~15-20 min research seminar (mid-September).

The diversity of expertise of the chemistry and biochemistry faculty involved with the programme affords a wide range of project choice within the chemical sciences, in addition to facilitating identification of potential project supervisors.
