This lecture provides graduate students with opportunities to learn cutting-edge research topics on innovative molecular chemistry, which pursues the precise synthesis, reactions, and functions of organic molecules and macromolecules. It also aims to provide an overarching perspective and knowledge of the field.
1) Understand and explain the fundamentals of synthesis, reactions, and functions of organic molecules and polymers.
2) Understand and explain state-of-the-art research topics in innovative molecular chemistry based on basic knowledge.
organic synthetic chemistry, organometallic chemistry, organic heteroelement chemistry, biological synthesis chemistry, organosilicon materials, mechano-responsive polymers, precision polymerization, template polymerization
✔ Specialist skills | ✔ Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
All the lectures are conducted in a face-to-face lecture style. Small assignments should be worked during each lecture.

To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
None
Materials are provided during class (or uploaded on T2SCHOLA) if necessary.
Grade will be evaluated based on the student’s understanding through assignments during each lecture.
Knowledges on chemistry at the undergraduate level are necessary. Students are expected to take related lectures for further in-depth study. Undergraduate students are not eligible to enroll for taking graduate courses in advance.
