• selecting and applying methods of pharmaceutical analysis under supervision, based on knowledge of the substance's structure and chemical properties
• using these methods in quantitative and qualitative analysis, as well as in the chemical quality control and perishability control of pharmaceutical ingredients and pharmaceutical preparations
• using statistics to describe and analyse data from quantitative analyses, including by using a spreadsheet

General competence

The student

• has insight into and is capable of selecting and using the correct laboratory equipment based on specifications given

The essay will be graded by the course lectures.

The work and teaching methods consist of lectures, seminars, group work and laboratory work. Digital learning resources, such as video lectures, are an important part of the teaching activities. Practical skills are acquired through the laboratory work. The course also includes written tests. By alternating between theory and practice, the programme helps the students to develop their ability to cooperate and work independently.

The following required coursework must be approved before the student can take the exam:

• a minimum attendance requirement of 80% at the laboratory course and supervised group work
• laboratory reports in accordance with specified criteria
• two or three written digital tests
• completed safety training before participating in the laboratory course

Exam content: The learning outcomes

Exam form: Supervised individual written exam, 4 hours
