Researching and Communicating Chemistry (F1102)

15 credits, Level 5

Autumn teaching

Think critically and develop the skills and understanding required for explaining scientific concepts to a range of audiences.

You’ll explore the different types of scientific explanations, and will bring these ideas together to develop your knowledge of questioning. You’ll look at the modelling of scientific concepts and processes to aid effective explanations.

You’ll have opportunities to deliver:

  • an oral presentation
  • a poster presentation
  • team debates
  • essays
  • scientific journal write-ups.

Base your research and communication on scientific content inlcuding green chemistry, environmental chemistry and climate change.

We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We鈥檙e planning to run these modules in the academic year 2026/27. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.

We鈥檒l make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
