The aim of the subject is to give an integrated systematic overview of the field of analytical chemistry, and to present and discuss state-of-the-art methods and instruments in analytical chemistry. The students will be trained to understand, process and present clearly information in scientific papers published in the top international journals. They will be acquainted with the process and ethical conduits of the international publications. They are expected to critically evaluate results and claims. They will develop their presentation and discussion skills. During the laboratory practices they will get expertise on performing accurate analytical measurements; they will become familiar with radioanalysis, as well as with micro- and nanofabrication technologies and related surface analytical technics. They will get an insight in the operation of an analytical company and the main steps of the workflow of chemical analysis.
