Further information on descriptions Description: Aims:
To revise key aspects of level C and I material which is fundamental.

Learning Outcomes:
After studying the Unit, students should be able to:
* Demonstrate knowledge of key aspects of all areas of fundamental chemistry expected of a BSc graduate chemist;
* Demonstrate an ability to solve problems across the discipline boundaries within chemistry.

Skills:
Independent working (F), Data Analysis (F, A), Problem solving (F, A), Group working (F).

Content:
Key aspects of all three branches of chemistry (inorganic, organic, physical) from years 1 and 2 of the course will be revised through a series of problem-solving workshops or independent study, to prepare students for an overarching, synoptic exam of the core chemistry programme up to H-level.
