Chemistry
Develop a pre-university research project in Chemistry
Chemistry is often known as the ‘central science’ because of its role in connecting other sciences, such as biology, physics, geology, and environmental science, with one another.
To be a successful scientist, students will need to master a wide range of challenging concepts – and learn how to apply these concepts to a variety of situations. The online Chemistry programme not only allows you to gain an insight into advanced chemistry topics but also help to develop the skills that will make you an excellent scientist.
What is the 1:1 Research Programme designed by Ivy League tutors?
The Ivy League Online Research Programme (‘ILORP’) is designed by faculty from Ivy League universities for students who want to enhance their personal research and study skills in preparation for university, whilst also developing deeper knowledge in their chosen field.
Led by your personal tutor, you will undertake a research project assessed at university-level and receive regular 1:1 supervisions from an expert academic.
This course is ideal for students wanting to gain invaluable experience for writing a dissertation or thesis at university, whilst also familiarising themselves with the demands of studying at a top tier university. Alternatively, this is a fantastic opportunity to experience a subject you have never studied before!
I thought my tutor was very accommodating and helpful, he explained complex topics in easy to digest ways and was very patient with me when I struggled in understanding something.
