Course description and aims

Laboratory course focusing on the basic techniques in experimental physical chemistry.
　Through the experiential learning together with the discussions and making reports for each coursework, students will also develop practical skills that are essential to become successful researchers.

Student learning outcomes

By the end of this course, students will:
1. Have acquired the basic concepts and techniques in experiments on physical chemistry.
2. Become aware of the technical report writing.
3. Have developed communication and presentation skills.
