Graduate capabilities & intended learning outcomes

01. Apply knowledge of the key concepts of the "Principles of Chemistry" as defined by the Royal Australian Chemical Institute associated with chemical reactions, structure and properties of chemicals, analytical methods for chemical species and physical principles of chemistry.

Activities:: Students will attend classes and workshops on advanced concepts of Chemistry, where they will discover new areas of the discipline as well as learn to apply the fundamental knowledge to explore uncharted territories through examples of ongoing research projects.

02. Apply advanced concepts of discipline-specific knowledge to the solution of scientific problems

Activities:: Students will attend classes and workshops on advanced concepts of Chemistry, where they will discover new areas of the discipline as well as learn to apply the fundamental knowledge to explore uncharted territories through examples of ongoing research projects.
