      Objectives of general skills

      • 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.
        • Mobilise, articulate and promote the knowledge and skills acquired.
      • 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.
      • Develop and integrate a high degree of autonomy.
        • Pursue their education and gain additional knowledge and new skills.
      • Apply high quality scientific methodology.
        • Critically reflect on the impact of chemistry in general and projects to which they particularly contribute.
        • Demonstrate thoroughness, independence, creativity, intellectual honesty, and ethical values.

      UE's Learning outcomes

      - Mastering the concepts of Supramolecular Chemistry (molecular recognition, self-assembly, cooperativity, macrocycle effect, template effect, etc.) - Identify the different families of supramolecular complexes, in relationship with the intermolecular interactions - Exploit Supramolecular Chemistry for the design of receptors, host-guest complexes, supramolecular polymers, and chemosensors - Exploit the concepts of supramolecular chemistry in biomolecular self-assembly
