Literature review and term presentation

Each student should independently complete a term project to demonstrate a phenomenon or answer a scientific question related to aerosol physics and chemistry. The student is free to choose his/her topic of interest and is fully responsible for finding and analyzing the data.

This will be a 3-stage process:

However, to ensure success, each student must meet with the Instructor before November 15th to discuss his/her plan and data for the term project.

Each student will give a 10 to 15-minute presentation (length of time depending on the number of registered students) at the end of the semester.

The term project and presentation will be graded with the following criteria:

  • The relevance of phenomenon/scientific question (10%)
  • Completeness and relevance of the literature review (30%)
  • The degree to which the phenomenon/question is analyzed and addressed(40%)
  • Clarity of the presentation (20%)


Resources for learning python

Assignments and the term project may require calculation and plotting using Python in Jupyter Notebooks. Python is a powerful programming language, while Jupyter Notebooks provide an easy, web-based way to combine code, plots, and descriptive text.

Students are encouraged to install Python and Jupyter using the popular Anaconda distribution. See our Python resources page for instructions. Students enrolled in this course will also be granted access to a SUSTech server running Jupyter, but this can only be used within the SUSTech network (but you can use a SUSTech VPN outside campus). Details will be announced in class.

If you are new to Python or to Jupyter, we recommend that you go through a few online tutorials. Check out our Python resources page.
