To provide a degree-level education, establishing a broad knowledge base and experience in modern chemistry and chemical practice. 2. To provide students with the opportunity to follow a variety of programmes of study in Chemistry within a common academic framework. Thus students will graduate as fully qualified chemists with specialist knowledge at the frontiers of Chemistry to suit their particular needs, interests and career objectives. 3. To develop the practical skills of students so that they are able to carry out experimental work safely and accurately whilst appreciating the significance of the results obtained. 4. To provide students with research training and sufficient exposure to chemical research to serve as a foundation for a career in scientific research through the execution of a substantial research project in an academic environment. 5. To provide students with the opportunity to develop a range of key skills of relevance to both chemical and non-chemical employment. 6. To instil in students an enthusiasm for Chemistry and an appreciation of its application in different contexts. 7. To exemplify the importance of Chemistry to the industrial, economic and social needs of society. 8. To enable students to pursue: 2

15 Additional year variants e.g. year in Europe, year in industry - Replacement year variants The Year in Industry programme replaces the Stage 4 Year in York programme by offering a 12 month placement in a UK or EU company. The taken by these students are clearly delineated in the Tables above. The Year Abroad scheme (F101) offers a full academic year in University Chemistry Departments in Australia, Belgium, Canada, Finland, France, Germany, India, Italy, New Zealand, Spain and Singapore. This replaces the Stage 4 Year in York programme. The taken by these students are clearly delineated in the Table above. For all students on Industry/Abroad programmes, if they wish to graduate with a specific degree title, the content of the final year projectmust be relevant to that title. Students on all programmes may apply to spend Stage 2 on the University-wide North America/Asia/Australia student exchange programme. Acceptance on the programme is on a competitive basis. Marks from taken on replacement years count toward progression and classification. Transfers out of or into the programme Students on all programmes who fail to achieve the 55% hurdle at the end of Year 2 will automatically transfer onto the BSc programme. Students on the BSc programme can transfer onto any of the MChem programmes up to the end of Year 2, subject to their achieving the qualifying 55% mark at the end of Year 2. Students on the MChem with a Year in York and Year Abroad programmes who fail to achieve the 50% hurdle at the end of Year 3 will graduate at that point with a BSc and will not progress to Year 4. If such students already have an industrial placement arranged, they may complete the industrial placement and graduate, subject to its satisfactory completion, with a BSc in Chemistry (with a Year in Indisutry) Students enrolled on the MChem with a Year in Industry programme who fail to obtain an industrial placement during the Year 3 placement application window will be transferred onto the MChem(York) or MChem(Abroad) programme depending on their preference. Exceptions to University Award Regulations approved by University Teaching Committee Exception All practical components are nonreassessable due to the nature of the skills assessed and the difficulties of reassessing lab work. Date approved Approved by the Curriculum Design Team on behalf of UTC, Sept

16 The MChem project is 90 credits rather than the university normal maximum of 80 credits across all different degrees (York, Abroad, Industry). This was done to achieve equity between all groups of students, and reflect the fact our degree in York, owing to its structure with many students studying projects away from York, has more taught material in year 3 than many chemistry degrees, and more project material in Year 4. Approved by UTC in August Quality and Standards The University has a framework in place to ensure that the standards of its programmes are maintained, and the quality of the learning experience is enhanced. Quality assurance and enhancement processes include: the academic oversight of programmes within departments by a Board of Studies, which includes student representation the oversight of programmes by external examiners, who ensure that standards at the University of York are comparable with those elsewhere in the sector annual monitoring and periodic review of programmes the acquisition of feedback from students by departments, and via the National Student Survey. More information can be obtained from the Academic Support Office: Date on which this programme information was updated: Departmental web page: 6 July Please note The information above provides a concise summary of the main features of the programme and the learning outcomes that a typical student might reasonably be expected to achieve and demonstrate if he/she takes full advantage of the learning opportunities that are provided. Detailed information on the learning outcomes, content, delivery and assessment of can be found in the module descriptions. The University reserves the right to modify this overview in unforeseen circumstances, or where the process of academic development, based on feedback from staff, students, external examiners or professional bodies, requires a change to be made. Students will be notified of any substantive changes at the first available opportunity. 16
