Learning outcomes

Students who complete the course shall have good knowledge in the field of organic chemistry and an ability to reason about chemical reactivity.

Course main content

Coherence between reactivity and simple physical constants will be emphasized throughout. When a chemical reaction takes place and when is it not? The latter issue may be important, for example, if you work with a package that will not react with its contents.

Eligibility

Completed upper secondary education including documented proficiency in Swedish corresponding to Swedish B and English corresponding to English A. For students who received/will receive their final school grades after 31 December 2009, there is an additional entry requirement for mathematics as follows: documented proficiency in mathematics corresponding to Mathematics A.

And the specific requirements of mathematics, physics and chemistry corresponding to Mathematics D, Physics B and Chemistry A, as well as at least 7,5 university credits (hp) in organic chemistry.
