This thematic block's objective is to understand the body's functioning at the molecular level.
SPECTROSCOPIC METHODS OF IDENTIFYING ORGANIC COMPOUNDS (5 ECTS, 45 Lab, 15 Tutorials, 45 Self-studies)
This thematic block aims to familiarise students with identifying organic compounds using the most important spectroscopic methods.
PLANING OF ORGANIC SYNTHESIS (5 ECTS, 45 Lab, 15 Tutorials, 45 Self-studies)
The learning objectives of the proposed thematic block are preparation for multi-stage organic synthesis and modification of the target synthesis recipe based on available procedures. Expanding the synthesis skills of organic compounds, basically the preparation and design of a laboratory procedure.
MATERIALS CHEMISTRY (5 ECTS, 45 Lab, 15 Tutorials, 45 Self-studies)
This thematic block aims to familiarise students with the chemical structure, preparation, properties and application of various materials used in everyday life and industry, including plastics, metals, binding materials, ceramics and glass. The subject also assumes a description and explanation of the processes to which some of the materials are subjected as a result of exploitation.
