Handbook 1997 : Faculty of Education : Chemistry
Chemistry subjects are offered by the School of Chemistry in the Faculty of Science. Teaching method in Chemistry remains the responsibility of the Faculty of Education.
Year 1 Chemistry covers the basic principles of Chemistry and their applications, and supports the teaching of Chemistry topics in junior science programs. Year 2 subjects develop these principles further, providing a balanced foundation of physical, inorganic, organic and analytical chemistry which supports further studies in Chemistry, and gives a broad basis for the teaching of Chemistry throughout the secondary school. In Year 3, a continuation of at least three of these areas is recommended, together with more specialised subjects.
You may not gain credit for both the Education Faculty and Science Faculty versions of a subject, for example Chemistry B34 and 610-210 Physical Chemistry. For advice, please contact the Education Faculty Office.
For details of Chemistry subject objectives for each year level, refer to the Chemistry section in the Faculty of Science section of the Handbook.Chemistry
In 1996 some Chemistry subjects were subject to a quota. For advice on selection and enrolment please contact the Education Faculty Office.
Semester 1 610-220 Organic Chemistry 610-260 Analytical Chemistry and Spectroscopic Methods
Semester 2 610-210 Physical Chemistry 610-240 Inorganic Chemistry
You may substitute 610-211 Physical Chemistry, 610-221 Organic Chemistry or 610-241 Inorganic Chemistry (18 pts) for the related subjects, depending on your main area of interest.
The recommended Year 3 subjects for students who have passed all of the subjects 485-246 (or 485-247) Chemistry B31 or B32, 485-249 Chemistry B33, 485-250 Chemistry B34, and 485-252 Chemistry B35 are as follows. (Students who have passed only some of these four subjects should consult student advisers to determine the appropriate subjects to undertake).
Recommended Year 3 subjects
Semester 1 610-310 Physical Chemistry1 610-340 Inorganic Chemistry I1 610-220 Organic Chemistry1 or 610-221 Organic Chemistry You should choose two of these three subjects. Semester 2 610-360 Analytical Chemistry and Instrumentation1 and subjects chosen from 610-346 Chemistry of Estuaries and Oceans 610-343 Bioinorganic Chemistry 610-320 Organic Chemistry I (if 610-220 is taken in Semester 1)
Students who have taken Year 3 Education Faculty subjects and who wish to undertake further studies in Chemistry in Year 4 are advised to choose from the following subjects:
Recommended Year 4 subjects
610-323 Organic Natural Products Chemistry 610-324 Industrial Organic Chemistry 610-342 Materials and Processes 610-398 Polymer Chemistry and Spectroscopy 610-399 Chemical Research Project2
You should consult the Science Faculty timetable, and clarify your School Experience D requirements before choosing subjects in Year 4.
1. These subjects should be regarded as core subjects, and it is recommended that three of these be chosen. Other subjects may be chosen as desired.
2. This Research project would normally be taken in Year 4. It may however be possible for suitably qualified Year 3 students to undertake the subject.
