Presentation

Mention Chemistry: L1 in the PCSI Portal (Physics, Chemistry, Engineering Sciences)

The Bachelor of Science in Chemistry is an initial generalist program, organized into different courses, with a specialization starting in L3. The objectives of the Bachelor of Science in Chemistry are to offer a generalist education, allowing the acquisition of fundamental theoretical and experimental knowledge in Chemistry: general, inorganic, organic, macromolecular, spectroscopic, analytical, with a progressive specialization in L3 towards the fields of life chemistry or materials chemistry. The Chemical Sciences of the Living World (L3 SCV) course is more oriented towards organic chemistry with an opening towards biomolecular chemistry and the corresponding masters. This multidisciplinary course directs students towards the biomolecular, drug, cosmetics, perfume and aroma sectors. The Chemical Sciences of Matter course (L3 SCM) is a solid generalist course in inorganic chemistry, solid state chemistry and general and macromolecular chemistry. This course directs students towards the materials and polymer sectors with applications in the fields of nanoscience, coatings, energy, and sustainable development.

Two other more specific courses are attached to the chemistry degree: 

The L3 pre-prep DNO course is a course of the chemistry degree intended for students who want to acquire a "L3 es sciences" necessary to enter oenology schools.

The Pre-PAC Perfumes and Cosmetics course (L2 PrePAC) is only accessible under certain conditions (limited number of places). It is a course that allows students to enter the PAC "Perfume, Flavors and Cosmetics" professional license in L3.

The advantages of the training

- More than 30% ofpractical teaching with access to the state-of-the-art equipment in the technology hall.

- Teaching of math/physics/chemistry/biology adapted to the students' profile.

- An initiation to research with theTutored Projects in L3.

-International mobility possible from L2.

- Entry into working life possible at Bac + 3 or continuation in Master

-Network of employers at the regional and national level.

Objectives

The objectives of the chemistry degree are therefore multiple:

✓ To provide the student with the knowledge, skills and know-how necessary for further study in all chemistry Master's courses, but also in master's degrees in biology and health, and in DNO preparation courses.

✓ To allow students to continue their studies by integrating an engineering school (on title).

✓Allowing some students to continue in a short professionalizing course: integration Licence Pro.

✓Permit direct professional insertion at the end of L3: administrative competitions, technicians.

Know-how and skills

The main goal of the Bachelor of Science in Chemistry is to give students a solid basic scientific training in the field of chemistry so that they have sufficient knowledge to continue their studies in Master's degree or to integrate the active life and to be able to adapt to the evolution of the professions in chemistry.

General scientific skills:

- Master basic techniques of laboratory experimentation.

-Be able to develop an experimental strategy to address a chemical problem.

- Know how to use and adapt analysis and data processing tools in the various fields of chemistry.

-Be able to appropriate the tools of study in chemistry including modeling and statistical tools.

-know how to read and criticize scientific texts in English - know how to search for and gather information and verify it (bibliographic research related to a scientific theme)


Cross-cutting skills:

- Be able to organize one's work based on an experimental protocol.

-know how to adopt a multidisciplinary approach (interface with biology, physics, etc.)

-Mastery of written and oral presentations and reports (tutored projects and practical work)

-Work in pairs or in teams (tutorials and practical work)

-understanding of written and spoken English.

-Mastery of basic computer tools.
