TR061- Fresher Module Choices

This page outlines the module choices that current TR061 Chemical Sciences students need to make in order to be eligible to apply for the Nanoscience Moderatorship in their third year.

Assuming that you have taken and passed the required modules, you will apply for the Nanoscience Moderatorship at the end of Semester 2 in your second year.

Places on the Nanoscience Moderatorship

There are a total of 26 places available on the Nanoscience Moderatorship. Of these, 10 places are reserved for students entering from TR061 Chemical Sciences and 10 places are reserved for students entering from TR063 Physical Sciences.

The remaining 6 places are available to eligible students from either TR061 or TR063 and are allocated on the basis of academic performance.

In recent years, places have remained available after the reassessment period. Students who have taken reassessment examinations may therefore still be eligible for a place on the Nanoscience Moderatorship.

 

First Year Choices (Junior Fresh)

As a TR061 Chemical Sciences student, the core and optional modules that you must take in your first year to remain eligible to apply for the Nanoscience Moderatorship are summarised below.

Junior Freshman requirements for Nanoscience: 40 ECTS core plus 20 ECTS options. S1: CHU11101, MAU11S01 and PYU11P10 (10 ECTS each). S2: CHU11102, MAU11S02 and PYU11P20 (10 ECTS each). PYU modules are choices within TR061.

In first year, Mathematics and Chemistry are core subjects for TR061 students. If you are considering Nanoscience, you must also ensure that you take the required Physics modules shown above.

Note: Following this module pathway allows you subsequently to apply for Chemistry, Chemistry with Molecular Modelling, or Nanoscience.

 

Second Year Choices (Senior Fresh)

As a TR061 Chemical Sciences student, the core and optional modules that you must take in your second year to remain eligible to apply for the Nanoscience Moderatorship are summarised below.

Senior Freshman requirements for Nanoscience: 30 ECTS core plus 30 ECTS options. S1: CHU22201 and PYU22P10 (10 ECTS each); MAU22S01 and MAU22S03 (5 ECTS each). S2: CHU22202 and PYU22P20 (10 ECTS each); PIU22992 and MAU22S02 (5 ECTS each). PYU22P10, PYU22P20, MAU22S03 and MAU22S02 are choices within TR061.

Note: Following this module pathway allows you subsequently to apply for Chemistry, Chemistry with Molecular Modelling, or Nanoscience.
