Students gain knowledge of issues in the chemical workplace such as safety, intellectual property and use of online databases. They have a theoretical understanding of, and practical experience with, the use of various types of analytical instrumentation common in the chemical industry. |
| Content |
This unit draws some material concerning chemical safety and generic workplace skills from CHEM3309 Chemistry in the Workplace. Material on analytical chemistry is drawn from CHEM2220/CHEM3304 Analytical and Physical Chemistry. |
| Assessment |
This comprises a two-hour examination (50 per cent); laboratory work and reports (30 per cent); assignments, presentations and other continuous assessment (20 per cent).
Supplementary assessment is not available in this unit except in the case of a bachelor's pass degree student who has obtained a mark of 45 to 49 and is currently enrolled in this unit, and it is the only remaining unit that the student must pass in order to complete their course. |
