Course
Decription:
In this capstone course each
participant will undertake the study of a topic which is of interest to
them and is relevant to some aspect of forefront scientific
research. The selected topic will also contain a significant
chemical component.
Each participant will prepare
a "teaching/learning resource module" on their topic. This module
will include an abstract, paper and appropriate information
searches. These modules will be made available to all MCE
students both in a print version to be kept in the CERC and an
electronically available version. Additionally, participants will
present a talk on their topic to an audience of peers, staff and
invited guests.
It is expected that many of
the topics selected will coincide with current departmental research
programs and that consultation and interaction with faculty and staff
conducting the research will enrich the educational experience. The
opportunity for highly motivated and qualified participants to
collaborate with a faculty mentor and participate in the research will
be possible and will be encouraged.
