Aims

The course aims to introduce students to advanced topics in physical chemistry in relation to research projects going on in the chemistry department of UCL. It will complete the education of those students presenting a thesis in physical chemistry.

The contribution of this Teaching Unit to the development and command of the skills and learning outcomes of the programme(s) can be accessed at the end of this sheet, in the section entitled “Programmes/courses offering this Teaching Unit”.

Content

Adapted to the research projects of those students presenting a thesis in physical chemistry, or upon demand of interested students. Lectures will be led by a team of (eventually invited) teachers active in physical chemistry.

Other information

Background: a good knowledge of physical chemistry is required. Physical chemistry I and II (CHM1351, CHM 2150). Evaluation: written exam. Documents: detailed plan of the course and reference books. The course could be partly or totally delivered by an invited lecturer.
