Further meetings: see moodleTime required:• First meeting at the beginning of the semester
• Independent preparation (e.g. literature research)
• 1 Meeting to plan the experiments
• Approx. 5 days lab course (generally in a seminar room!), supported by various ‘homework’ assignments. Dates will be arranged in the first meeting. Likely to be spread over 2-3 weeks.
• Independent data analysis
• Final presentation (in a seminar room/lecture hall! The date will be arranged during the first meeting)Attendance is compulsory during the whole lab course!
Unexcused absence at the first meeting will result in deregistration of the student from the course.
Any unexcused absence in the further parts of the lab course will result in a negative assessment.

This lab course will be held exclusively in a seminar room!
We will not go into any lab.
Doing the course online is only planned for a pandemic etc.Objective:
The students will learn to independently address analytical-chemical questions, from experimental planning to the presenting of results. They acquire knowledge about the handling of inorganic mass spectrometers, from method generation to data evaluation, in a modern, digitally supported setting.Content:
As modern analytical-chemical research is often significantly relying on computers, from the software for operating the analytical instruments over method development to data handling (exception: sample preparation), this course will also focus on the digital aspects of the analytical process.Key components of the course are:
• Presentation of a scientific question from the area of analytical chemistry
• Preparation of possible solutions, planning of an experiment
• Setup and execution of the analyses (mass spectrometry)
• Data analysis and evaluation
• Presentation of analytical-chemical researchMethod:
The course comprises theory and practical parts. In the theory units, supplemented by independent work by the students.
In the theory units, the necessary knowledge is conveyed through interactive lectures and live demonstrations.
For the practical parts, various modern digital methods will be used, such as videos or remote control of a mass spectrometer.
Additionally, students will work independently or in teams, e.g. for literature research, data evaluation or working on specific tasks using an instrument simulator
The course is concluded by student presentations.
Discussions with students are an essential part of the entire lab course.
