Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• In the field of chemistry, possess highly specialised and integrated knowledge and a wide range of skills adding to those covered in the Bachelor's programme in chemistry.
• Help lead and complete a major development project, individually or in teams, related to chemistry.
• Assess the degree of complexity of the project and take into account the objectives, allocated resources and constraints that characterise it.
• Demonstrate independence and their ability to work alone or in teams.
• Manage research, development and innovation within chemistry and/or its applications.
• Understand unprecedented problems in chemistry.
• Mobilise their knowledge effectively, identify their limits, conduct methodical research and critically analyse scientifically valid information.
• Possibly propose innovative solutions to targeted problems, which also requires attentiveness and mutual respect, as well as argue and establish constructive debates.
• Communicate clearly in the scientific domain.
• Communicate, both orally and in writing, their findings, original proposals, knowledge and underlying principles, in a clear, structured and justified manner.
• Adapt their communication to a variety of audiences.
• Develop and integrate a high degree of autonomy.
• Pursue their education and gain additional knowledge and new skills.
• Adapt and evolve in a new context.

• Demonstrate thoroughness, independence, creativity, intellectual honesty, and ethical values.

Learning Outcomes of UE

Content of UE

The course aims to illustrate, through various examples, the implementation of the major concepts of "green chemistry" applied to organic chemistry. Subjects such as sonochemistry, solid phase synthesis, combinatorial chemistry, sythesis under microwave irradiations  and microreactors will be discussed and widely illustrated.
