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 textbooks and other course material.
None required.
Materials used in class can be found on T2SCHOLA.
Students' fundamental knowledge of characterization of organic and polymeric materials and each instrumental analysis will be assessed. Student's course scores are based on a term-end report.
No prerequisites are necessary, but enrollment in the related courses is desirable.
