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.
    • 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.
  • Have acquired professional skills in relation to the objective defining the degree.
    • Learn about scientific research and the world of research.
