Prel. scheduled hours: 46
Rec. self-study hours: 114

  Area of Education: Technology

Main field of studies: Chemical Engineering

  Advancement level (G1, G2, A): G1

Aim:
The course shall exemplify and present different fields and areas in Chemical Analysis Engineering. By analyzing an analytical problem coupled to the presented fields, students working in groups will get in-depth knowledge which they will present in written and oral form. After the course, students will
  • be able to organize and present information
  • be able to evaluate oral communication
  • be able to describe the different areas of Chemical Analysis Engineering, together with concrete industrial examples
  • be able to produce an in-depth technical report for an analytical problem, building upon their knowledge of report writing and presentation skills
  • describe and use basic ethical theories, principles and concepts to analyze ethical problems in natural sciences and technology.
  • describe the importance of professional responsibility.


Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Introduction to analytical Chemistry, Engineering project

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Organisation:
The course will illustrate industrial applications of Chemical Analysis Engineering. Examples will be included in forensic studies and environmental science. The course consists of lectures, seminars and project work.
The course runs över the entire autumn semester, and a literature project will be mixed with lectures, presentations of companies and exercises in communication and presentation techniques and lectures and seminars in ethics. Both individual and groupwise oral presentation is included in the course.


Course contents:
An overview and in-depth view of different areas of analytical chemistry will be presented for both small and large companies. Forensic analyses. Environmental analyses. Pharmaceutical analyses. Medical applications. Process analyses. Oral and written presentation skills. Ethical aspects in natural science and technology.

Course literature:
Materials from presentations, literature provided by the teachers and relevant literature found by the students in literature searches.
