Semester 2 modules

Here's what I'm going to expect in S2 modules:

Analytical & Physical Chemistry (APC)
Provides students with the fundamentals in Analytical and Physical Chemistry. Students will learn the basic concepts of moles, concentrations in different units, redox reactions and equilibrium. Students also acquire the basic practical skills to analyse a range of substances quantitatively through carrying out experiments using simple volumetric analytical procedures.


Applied Electricity & Electronics (AEE)
Aims to provide students with an understanding of the basic concepts in electricity and electronics, with emphasis in areas relevant to the chemical manufacturing and service industries. The design and applications of resistive networks, motors, transformers and power supply circuits are studied. Students also learn the importance of electrical safety in the workplace.


Materials in Practice (MIP)
Covers material properties and test methods. Students are also given broad-based knowledge on traditional materials like metals, ceramics, polymers and composites and their applications.


Chemical Process Principles A (CPPA)
Provides basic concepts of chemical engineering. Students will learn units and unit conversion, basic engineering measurements, and material balances with and without chemical reaction. In addition, students will visit production plant where they will gain an appreciation of various processes in the industries.


Critical Reasoning Skills (CRS)
Emphasisese the process of crafting a structured, coherent argument. Students learn to critically examine issues across disciplines, and apply various thinking strategies, interpret and analyse facts, evaluate arguments and opinions and arrive at a balanced viewpoint expressed in speech and writing.


Character Development (CD)


Besides these modules, I need to take 1 GEM module (General Elective Modules). the problem is there are 80 choices !!! SO, i really have no idea what I want to take... There's possiblity that I'm going to take 2 GEM instead of 1...

Yeah, that's about it... 18 sept, I need to register for my GEM modules... =D
