Course overview
The course aims to provide students with a strong foundation of chemistry concepts that would be required for future studies in chemistry and chemistry-related fields, including biological, health and pharmaceutical sciences. Building on prior courses, learners will be introduced to more advanced concepts including quantum theory, the chemistry of transition metals, hybridisation and structure determination, and organic synthesis. Examples of the application of chemical concepts to real-world scenarios will be provided throughout the course.
- Quantum Theory, Periodicity & Structure Determination
- Transition Metal Chemistry
- Organic Chemistry Advanced
Course learning outcomes
- Apply knowledge of concepts of quantum theory, transition metal chemistry, structure determination, and organic synthesis to solve quantitative and conceptual chemistry problems.
- Demonstrate proficiency in accurately representing chemical structures, formulae, equations and reaction mechanisms
- Interpret, record and present results of laboratory practicals.
- Interpret safety information to solve problems and prepare for laboratory practicals.
