This course aims at learning principles and methods for basic experiments in physical chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, and molecular biology, which are required for conducting research in the laboratory.
By the end of this course, students will be able to:
1) Conduct basic biological experiments required for research in the laboratory.
2) Solve problems when in trouble with basic biological experiments.
3) Describe the aim, results, and discussion of biological experiments clearly.
Physical chemistry, Organic chemistry, Biochemistry, Molecular biology
✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | ✔ Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
Students start experiments after the guidance on the flow of the experiments in the first ~30 min in each class.

---|---|---|
Class 1 | Orientation is given in the 1st class. From the 2nd classes, students are divided to 4 classes, and take 1 of the 4 experiments; physical chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, and molecular biology (other 3 experiments will be taken in LST Basic Laboratory II, III, IV). For each experiment, students perform 4-5 projects. | Experimental report. |
An original textbook edited by the School of Life Science and Technology
Handouts will be distributed as necessary.
