Industrial Training

SHC3003 - Industrial Training

Students on the integrated master’s degrees, MChem and MSci, take this 40 credit practice-based training module (usually based in an academic laboratory).
Training will normally take place across a 48-week period in a suitable organisation, usually a university laboratory. The exact nature of the training will vary depending on the specific background and demands of individual students and the opportunities available within the differing laboratory environments. Assistance is provided to help students find a suitable laboratory research position. Once a position is secured, students will be instructed about the assessment criteria of the module via a 2-hour workshop. Students will usually be appraised up to twice a year by a University tutor. This module provides an opportunity for students to experience research within a laboratory related to their chosen pathway and at the same time improves their technical, social and transferable skills. The practical content of this module differs from that in the Investigative Project Module in that it is the students’ day-to-day laboratory work that is assessed and not a specific project.  Students are also assessed on their laboratory note-book keeping and on the production of training portfolio that reflects the demands of continuing professional development and reflective practice.

It is a condition of accreditation to notify the RSC of any changes to an accredited degree. 
Reaccreditation due 2023/24.
