This course focuses on the fundamental aspects of the intermolecular interactions and supramolecular chemistry.
Students will be able to explain basic facts related to the noncovalent interactions associated with organic molecules and ions as well as the structures and functions of supramolecular assemblies.

To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to the course material.

Students’ course scores are based on final exams, which will be held on-site (but, it depends on the situation at that moment and may be changed to a different method, e.g., an online exam.). Exercise problems and/or reporting assignments will also be considered.
