Programme content

"Options" and "free choice" courses

Registration for the options and free choice courses must be approved by the Chemistry Department before the end of the third week of each quadrimester. This registration will then be handed in to the secretary's office of the Faculty and the jury secretary. The specific practical procedures relating to the "licence" options and the thesis, not detailed below, are established by the Chemistry Department and made known to the students.

4. Orientations

The students will have to follow a minimum of 225 hours of courses and carry out a piece of research work in one of the five following orientations : biochemistry, inorganic and analytical chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry or macromolecular chemistry. The 225 hours of courses will obligatorily comprise all of the courses which constitute the core syllabus of the orientation in which the thesis is carried out, excluding those courses already followed in the first year. The students who do a thesis in an interdisciplinary subject may, with the agreement of the Department, obtain derogations for some of the compulsory courses.

4. Options

Besides the courses which constitute the core syllabus specific to each orientation, the students wil choose a certain number of options with a view to attaining a global minimum timetable volume of 225 hours. These courses will be selected :

  • either from among the courses listed on the core syllabus of the other orientations,
  • or from the options listed below,
  • or, in agreement with their thesis director, from the other courses featuring on the University programmes.

The choice cannot, in any circumstances, include a course which the student has already been examined on in the first year. The students are highly recommended to extend their choice to the courses of the other orientations in the second year.
