Research project in green chemistry part A

GCH5901 (12 credit points) in combination with GCH5902 (12 credit points) will allow you to undertake a major research project in green and sustainable chemistry over two consecutive semesters, during the advanced practical component of the course. A research thesis will enable you to consolidate the theoretical knowledge and analytical skills acquired during the Master course in a research context. The units will allow you to develop independent learning and research skills on a topic of your choice, related to the core and elective units offered in the course. The unit will primarily comprise independent research but includes some scheduled activities to enhance and develop transferable skills for success in research. You will be assessed primarily on the thesis submitted at the conclusion of the unit. You will be encouraged to link your research projects to industry and wider global issues, where innovative green chemistry approaches can lead to novel products and processes for the good of society. This research project experience represents a possible pathway to a PhD studies.
