Formative Tracks

The concept of formative track allows the student to build a personalized academic path, combining courses from different cores, internships and technical training according to their interests and research objectives.

The core system indicates the suggested progression of courses. For example:

• “Thermodynamics and Chemical Kinetics [C]” is a Conceptual core course that provides theoretical foundations
• “Chemical Kinetics and Dynamics [A]” is an Advanced core course that deepens concepts, recommended after taking the conceptual course

It is recommended to prioritize:

• Mandatory courses (QFL5930 and QFL5939 for Master’s)
• [B] Core courses (Foundation) - complement fundamental training
• [C] Core courses (Conceptual) - provide theoretical basis for the research project

With the conceptual foundation established, the student can advance to:

• [A] Core courses (Advanced) - theoretical deepening
• [F] Core courses (Frontier) - current research topics
• [TT] Core courses (Cross-cutting Themes) - interdisciplinary expansion

This organization also facilitates planning of technical training in the second semester.
