  • Understand the physical principles of selected analytical methods and what measurement techniques are based on
  • Be able to assess the quality of laboratory instruments, acquire knowledge of quality assurance on laboratory operations in general

Learning methods and activities

Lectures, assignments and mandatory teamwork. Mandatory laboratory work with submission of reports, teamwork and problem sets.

Mandatory work in instrumental techniques consists of participation in practical exercises, group work and assigments. All mandatory work must be approved to be eligible for the written exam.

Total workload per student corresponds to approx. 200 hours. Of this, scheduled activities will amount to approx. 80 hours.

Compulsory assignments

  • Laboratory course and group work

Further on evaluation

The laboratory course is evaluated approved / not approved with special focus on achieving learning outcomes: Participate actively in discussions when conducting laboratory exercises, have an understanding of and overview of procedures to be carried out for specific laboratory exercises, take an active part in carrying out practical work and show initiative to discuss interpretation of analysis results to develop an understanding of how to assess test results.

Compulsory work requirements must be approved in order to be eligible for the written exam. Approved compulsory work is valid for four semesters.

Re-scheduled exams can be held as an oral examination.
