SHENZHEN MSU-BIT University (SMBU) has recently released its admission plan for the comprehensive assessment of undergraduate students admitted in year 2022. This year, the university will enroll 678 undergraduate students from 21 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, including Zhejiang, Jilin and Tianjin adding to its list recently. Meanwhile, the university will offer an undergraduate program in chemistry (dual enrollment) and an English language stream (single enrollment) for biology majors. Students enrolled in chemistry can obtain the student status at both Lomonosov Moscow State University (LMSU) and SMBU. The courses are taught in Russian and graduates will get diplomas and bachelor’s degrees from both LMSU and SMBU when they fulfill the requirements. Introduction The chemistry program is set to cultivate research talents and innovative talents with basic chemistry knowledge and skills. The graduates will grasp professional knowledge, methodology for research, modern concepts and mastery of natural sciences including physics, chemistry, biology, geography and humanity. Students will learn knowledge relating to material structures, basic knowledge about spatio-temporal data methods and applied cross-disciplinary systems. They will independently solve issues relating to world outlook and methodology in natural science and social issues, and thus implement plans for sustainable development. When employed, our graduates can help solve issues that involve applied basic knowledge in the fields of chemistry and real economy, such as manufacturing products by using different chemistry reagents and extracting and processing natural resources. Our graduates can also engage in supplementary research activities, acquire new knowledge or make new products, optimize technical processes, and control the quality of materials and products through applying their knowledge. Our graduates will be competitive in job markets as they combine theories with practices, and are academically trained both by teachers and researchers. Our graduates can also further their studies in the field of chemistry and related scientific fields. Program objectives Students in the chemistry program will learn chemistry (inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry, organic chemistry, etc.), basic natural science theories (mathematical analysis, physics and biology), and computational and software skills. The laboratory and research work are important to their studies. Students will learn synthesis and analysis of modern materials, and acquire skills of using modern analysis apparatuses. Students will be cultivated with a high level of scientific literacy and innovative thinking, and make progress in research and teaching, solving practical issues, setting up and planning experiments and expanding their knowledge. Course and degree duration Students need to complete the courses in four years and will be awarded a Bachelor of Science degree. Major courses Major courses include mathematical analysis, analytic geometry, linear algebra, informatics, mechanics and electricity, amplitude and wave optics, theoretical and quantum mechanics, inorganic chemistry, chemical basis of biological technology, polymer compounds, advanced business Chinese listening and speaking, analytical chemistry, physical research methods, physical chemistry, colloidal chemistry, and chemical technology. Practice-based teaching The courses for a bachelor’s degree include required courses and elective courses. The required courses include modules that cultivate students’ academic aptitude, practical activities that foster their professionalism in researches and the national general tests. The practice-based teaching sets sight on cultivating students’ basic capabilities. |
