Learning outcomes: • To apply theoretical knowledge and practical approaches to managing organic synthesis processes. • The understandable and unambiguous communication of personal knowledge, conclusions, and arguments to specialists and non-specialists, particularly students. • The management of practice or learning processes that are complex, unpredictable, and require new strategic approaches.
Required prior and related subjects: • Scientific Research Methodology • Organic Synthesis Products Technology • Chemistry and Technology of Nanomaterials • Master’s Thesis Internship • Master’s Thesis Preparation
Summary of the subject: The discipline considers the classification of catalytic reactions, describes the modern provisions of the theory of catalysis, presents the features of heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis, describes the features and mechanism of metal-complex catalysis, considers the technological aspects of heterogeneous catalysis, in particular the features of operation and preparation of heterogeneous catalysts, presents technological schemes for the preparation of a number of heterogeneous catalysts and characteristics of equipment for the preparation of heterogeneous catalysts, and also considers the main processes of organic synthesis. As a result of studying this discipline, the student acquires the knowledge, skills and competencies necessary to organize the activities of organic synthesis enterprises and solve practical problems to ensure the quality of target products of organic synthesis.
Опис: Classification of catalytic reactions. The main provisions of catalysis. Theories of catalysis. Homogeneous catalysis. Heterogeneous catalysis. Technological aspects of heterogeneous catalysis.

Assessment methods and criteria: The main methods of knowledge diagnostics are: current control (CC) and semester control (SC), which is carried out on the basis of the educational material, the volume of which is determined by the work program of the discipline for the semester. Current control is carried out to check the level of mastery of theoretical and practical knowledge and skills of the student. PC is conducted in the form of writing an essay. Semester control is conducted in the form of an examination (EC). The exam is a form of SC of the student's learning outcomes in the discipline for the semester.
Критерії оцінювання результатів навчання: • abstract (30%) • final control (70 %, control measure, exam): written-oral form (70%)
Порядок та критерії виставляння балів та оцінок: 100-88 points - certified with an “excellent” grade - High level: the student demonstrates an in-depth mastery of the conceptual and categorical apparatus of the discipline, systematic knowledge, skills and abilities of their practical application. The mastered knowledge, skills and abilities provide the ability to independently formulate goals and organize learning activities, search and find solutions in non-standard, atypical educational and professional situations. The applicant demonstrates the ability to make generalizations based on critical analysis of factual material, ideas, theories and concepts, to formulate conclusions based on them. His/her activity is based on interest and motivation for self-development, continuous professional development, independent research activities, implemented with the support and guidance of the teacher. 87-71 points - certified with a grade of “good” - Sufficient level: involves mastery of the conceptual and categorical apparatus of the discipline at an advanced level, conscious use of knowledge, skills and abilities to reveal the essence of the issue. Possession of a partially structured set of knowledge provides the ability to apply it in familiar educational and professional situations. Aware of the specifics of tasks and learning situations, the student demonstrates the ability to search for and choose their solution according to the given sample, to argue for the use of a particular method of solving the problem. Their activities are based on interest and motivation for self-development and continuous professional development. 70-50 points - certified with a grade of “satisfactory” - Satisfactory level: outlines the mastery of the conceptual and categorical apparatus of the discipline at the average level, partial awareness of educational and professional tasks, problems and situations, knowledge of ways to solve typical problems and tasks. The applicant demonstrates an average level of skills and abilities to apply knowledge in practice, and solving problems requires assistance, support from a model. The basis of learning activities is situational and heuristic, dominated by motives of duty, unconscious use of opportunities for self-development. 49-00 points - certified with a grade of “unsatisfactory” - Unsatisfactory level: indicates an elementary mastery of the conceptual and categorical apparatus of the discipline, a general understanding of the content of the educational material, partial use of knowledge, skills and abilities. The basis of learning activities is situational and pragmatic interest.
