Courses

Automated analytical and synthetic chemistry 1

ChE-602

The course gives a general understanding of lab automation theory and practical knowledge. It is structured to integrate theoretical foundations, hands-on practical exercises (e.g., Arduino programming), and individualized project analysis.

Automated and data-driven laboratories

CH-400

In this course, taught by experts from the Swiss CAT+ West Hub, students will be introduced to key concepts in automation and data-driven chemistry. Using real-world cases, students will learn the theoretical skills and practical tools needed to automate a laboratory.

Structural analysis

CH-314

The aim of this course is to treat three of the major techniques for structural characterization of molecules used in chemistry and chemical engineering: mass spectrometry, NMR, and X-ray techniques.
