Application Areas to Chemical Analysis Engineering

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
• perform, plan och document a project work according to a project model
• describe and use basic ethical theories, principles and concepts to discuss ethical problems in natural sciences and technology.
• explain the importance of professional responsibility.
