Objectives
At the end of the lab course, the students understand the practical and theoretical fundaments of computer-based data acquisition in Physical Chemistry; they are able to design and operate such experiments on their own. Furthermore they are able to evaluate, to analyze and to critically assess research data.
Description
In this lab course, the students are taught advanced measurement techniques in Physical Chemistry, as well as analysis and modeling of data.
Prerequisites
Previous knowledge of Analysis and Linear Algebra, foundations of Physical Chemistry and basic knowledge of Experimental Physics
Teaching and learning methods
Lab course that includes a thematic introduction into various measurement techniques, programming, interconnection of computer-based experiments, an introduction into the fundaments of scientific programming and associated simulation techniques. The content is elaborated in form of 10 thematic blocks. To this end, introductory seminars and subsequent practical training in groups are held during 10 weeks in two afternoon sessions. Homework is assigned each week, to be completed in between the sessions.
Examination
Grades are determined based on written/oral exams and the degree of active participation in the course.
