Sustainable Development Goals

Learning Goals

The course global objective is providing to the students several laboratory methodologies and instrumental techniques that will allow a good laboratory work in analytical, organic and inorganic. The students must use the skills in concrete situations. The students at the end of the course must have the knowledge how to plan and execute the experimental work needed to solve some scientific problem in the analytical, organic and inorganic field.

Contents

The three components include: a) Preparation and characterisation of inorganic compounds. b) Use of several analytical techniques. c) synthesis of organic compounds. d) data analysis. e) laboratory work planning.

Teaching Methods

The teaching methods will be based on practical classes in laboratory and some in classroom. The learning methods will be supported by the students experience acquired from the classes and from the readings and internet consult.

Assessment
