3. Course Objectives

"CHEM243 Chemical Analysis" module will cover fundamentals and applications of various chemical analyses.

1) Students will learn the principles of analytical chemistry and the basics of various chemical analyses, which include experimental error, analytical chemical equilibria, electrochemistry, and instrumental analysis.
2) Several interesting applications of chemical analysis in our real life will be introduced and discussed.
3) Several emerging analytical techniques which are pushing the limit of science will be introduced.

CHEM243 화학분석 강의는 여러 연구분야에서 실질적으로 활용되는 다양한 화학분석법의 기초와 응용에 대해 학습할 계획입니다.

1) 학생들은 다양한 화학분석의 기초가 되는 오차처리, 화학평형, 전기화학, 기기분석의 기초를 배우게 됩니다.
2) 화학분석이 실생활에서 활용되는 흥미로운 사례들에 대해 소개를 하고 관련된 토의를 진행할 계획입니다.
3) 최신 과학/공학분야 연구의 지평을 확장시키고 있는 새로운 분석법에 대한 소개가 이루어질 예정입니다.
