Aims

The main objective of this activity is to integrate all aspects of chemistry and sensitize the student to global control of acquired knowledge in different isolated areas. Confronted to interdisciplinary treatment of a problem, a situation close to professional reality, the student will develop his analysis, his synthetic capability, and a critical mind. The written and oral presentation of the work will value his communication skills.

Main themes

The project is a personal work of bibliographic research on a theme of modern chemistry. The student will consider the problem under all aspects. During his research work, he will benefit from the guidance of teachers, following a defined work plan, with three set meeting dates to help him spread the workload on the whole academic year.
The research will be presented in a written report and as an oral presentation in front of a lecture comity, followed by a short debate.
