Hours of instruction:

Weekly: four hours of lectures + two hours of exercises + three hours of labwork (4+2+3)

Goals:

The aim of the course is that student complete their theoretical and practical knowledge from these methods and to qualify him for independent research in this field. In addition, students will complete their knowledge in the field of sensors, nanosenzora, analysis and characterization of surfaces and materials analysis and characterization of powders.Within the scope of the course students will acquire theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of application of instrumental methods in speciation species in environmental chemistry and the possibilities of determining different oxidation statesof certain species.

Outcome:

Student will be qualified for independent research, optimisation and improving sensitivity of instrumental methods for the analysis of complex samples.
