Learning outcome

Knowledge

The candidate has knowledge of * chemical and physical principles that underlie key methods in chemical analysis such as acid / base titration, electrochemistry and photometry * electromagnetic radiation and optical components * instrumentation that is important for chemical analysis and medical laboratory technology * simple circuits * Sensitivity, uncertainty, accuracy and precision of analytical methods * how to find calculation formulas for calculating concentrations from measurements.

Skills

The candidate: *can explain and interpret results from electrochemical instruments *is able to apply knowledge and make calculations on electromagnetic radiation and optical components and evaluate them *can perform calculations on simple circuits *can work accurately with chemical techniques, especially in quantitative analysis *can assess the sensitivity, uncertainty, accuracy and precision of analytical methods *can find and apply calculation formulas which includes measurement data.

General competence

The candidate has insight into chemical theory and the physical principles that are behind analytical methods used in laboratories, and can discuss the results probabability and reliability obtained from such.

Learning methods and activities

Lectures, laboratorycourses, theoretical and practical excercises with tutors. Total workload for each student will be about 200 hours. There will be about 80 scheduled hours with lectures, laboratorycourses and exercises.
