L3- Chemical Sciences of Matter (SCM)
In the Chemical Sciences of Matter (CSM) course, a contemporary approach will enable students to discover materials and understand their importance in today's major themes (energy, water and agri-food, health, etc.). This course is aimed at students wishing to acquire the scientific knowledge and skills needed to both synthesize and understand the properties of materials. This year (L3) of progressive specialization will enable the application of theoretical and experimental knowledge in the field of materials chemistry, combining a scientific and technological approach.
The SCM pathway begins in semester 5 and continues in semester 6 of the Chemistry degree, enabling very gradual specialization in certain chemistry specialties (materials, physical chemistry, etc.) which will then be developed at Master's level.
The common core of knowledge is provided by 50% of UEs common to the different Chemistry degree courses.
Semester 5 (S5) covers the fundamentals of chemistry, with courses in thermodynamics, coordination chemistry, organic chemistry and macromolecular chemistry. Specialization begins with a dedicated course on the structure and properties of materials, which, in addition to lectures and tutorials, includes practical work to put the knowledge acquired into practice. In fact, S5 met is based on extensive experimental training in terms of knowledge and skills, with 20% of practical teaching covering synthesis methods (microwave synthesis, hydrothermal synthesis, mechanosynthesis, etc.) and advanced analysis techniques (X-ray diffraction, scanning probe microscopy and energy analysis, X-ray fluorescence, thermal analysis, etc.) available in the Balard teaching hall. This hall gives students access to top-level equipment similar to that found in industry or research laboratories. Finally, an English language course - an indispensable language in the scientific world, whether industrial or academic - is also offered to improve language skills.
In semester 6 (S6), the course focuses more closely on organic, polymeric and inorganic materials, while including the theoretical foundations needed to understand their properties, and bridging the gap to industry by including specific processes. The special feature of this semester is the introduction of a tutored project in which students develop a research project supervised by the department's teaching staff to develop new materials or new syntheses. For several days, they are given access to the teaching hall, where they can use state-of-the-art equipment to carry out their project.

L3 - Preparation for the National Oenology Diploma (Prépa DNO)
The oenologist accompanies and supervises wine production in cooperatives and winegrowing
operations. They can also work in laboratories and institutes, in
research, consultancy and innovation roles that are particularly decisive in the face of the new challenges facing this profession
.
In the wine industry, they are the scientific experts.
The L3 DNO preparatory course is designed for students wishing to become oenologists, with a particular
interest in the sciences.
