In recent years, the discipline construction has achieved leapfrog developments, with the international influence rising significantly. According to the ESI evaluation retrieval data of academic influence of subjects, chemistry in BIT is ranked 405th out of the global 1053 institutions which are in the TOP1% of this system, and 26th out of the 71 universities in China, which is one of the important bases of chemical scientific research and talents training at home and abroad.
On the basis of the projects conducted by the school, we have developed a discipline for this program: Chemistry. This discipline involves coordination chemistry, advanced topics in organic chemistry, new energy technology, nano-science and technology, x-ray crystallography, supramolecular chemistry, and so on.
The basic length of schooling for master students is 2 years. In principle, students should complete the
courses in the first academic year. Thesis work time should not be less than one year. The maximum
length of study for master students is extended by 0.5 years on the basis of 2 years.
Curriculum
Public Courses Two are required:
1）Chinese Language: Set by International Students Center of BIT. All international students must take this compulsory course.
2) Outline of China: Set by International Students Center of BIT. All international students must take this compulsory course.
Major Basic Courses
Inorganic Synthesis and Preparative Chemistry; Advanced
Experiment of Organic Chemistry; Materials Science;
Advanced Topics in Organic Chemistry; X-Ray Crystallography;
Coordination Chemistry; Spectrometric Identification of
Organic Compounds; Nano-science and technology
Optional Courses
Master international students must take two optional courses of their own Program. Under the
guidance of the supervisor, Master international students can take undergraduate courses if needed.
Practice Part
1. Academic Activity (1 credit)
International Graduate Students need to participate in academic activities, academic lectures and
academic conferences of their own fields. Giving oral speeches on academic conferences, whether on
or off campus, are highly recommended.
2. Innovative Practice (1 credit) International Graduate Students should take scientific research training and social practices during
their training period, which should be carried-out and evaluated by supervisors.
The Dissertation Related Work
1. Literature Review & Opening Report
Under the guidance of the supervisor, International Graduate Students should pick a research direction
as well as reading certain amount reference books, both Chinese or foreign languages, at the same
time.
Master students should write a literature review, no less than 4000 words, based on the reading of over
30 papers , both Chinese or foreign languages, of their own research field.
On the basis of the Literature Review, the Opening Report should mainly introduce following factors:
research target, research meaning, methods of research, technical route, implementation plan,
arrangements and expected results.
2. Mid-Term Evaluation
Schools organize Mid-Term Evaluation for International Students, which includes the evaluations of
course study, literature review, opening report and the research progress of publishing papers and
writing of Degree thesis.
