Chemistry, Bachelor Thesis
30.0 ECTS creditsThe course is offered in the form of a supervised practical project. The students work on their own investigative projects during 17 out of the 20 weeks that make up the course. Instruction is in the form of supervision, individually or in groups of students, or a combination. Supervision is provided for the duration of the course. Re-registered students are only offered supervision if circumstances permit.
Students draw up a project plan which includes research questions, methods, and a time plan. The project plan must be approved by the examiner before the project starts. The results of the project are compiled in an individual report written in Swedish or English. The report must always have a title and abstract in Swedish and English. The report must meet the standard requirements of research ethics and include discussions of:
- the relation of the research question and results to existing knowledge and previous research in the area,
- possible applications of the results or of other research results related to the research question, and desirable or undesirable consequences of these.
The project is presented and discussed orally in two seminars, a midway seminar and a final seminar.
