Understanding of Practical Chemistry

When you'll study it: Semester 1
Level: Level 5
Module lead: Nicolas Bury
Academic year: 2024-25

Module overview

NATS students taking a single CHEM module in Year 2 semester 1 may not take the 0 CP practical module (CHEM2029) for the semester. However, CHEM2029 provides marks into each of the three theory modules run by chemistry in semester 1 year 2. To provide additional practical knowledge and marks for NATS students taking a single CHEM module in semester 1 year 2 this 0CP module will develop understanding relevant to practical chemistry taught in CHEM2029 and provide a grade for inclusion in the single CHEM theory module being taken.
