Key Skills for Chemists 2A

Code: CHEM281

Credits: 7.5

Semester: Semester 1

This module aims to (i) further develop the quantitative skills of a student, (ii) introduce students to the Chemistry Key Skill of Molecular Modelling, and (iii) maintain student development of general transferable presentation skills. The overarching learning outcome is that students will gain the necessary key skills to perform well in their chemistry degree programmes. By the end of the module students will have improved their ability to perform and apply mathematical techniques to problems in kinetics, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics and molecular symmetry. They will have developed abilities to employ force-field  techniques in Molecular Modelling using the Spartan package. They will also have further developed their range of transferable skills, with oral communication and team working.
