Advances in Instrumentation and Chemical Data Analysis

By Dr. Rajesh Parvatkar | Government College of Arts Science and Commerce, Goa

Learners enrolled: 2482

This Course will give an excellent opportunity and exposure to study/handle the instruments used to separate, identify and quantify the chemical substances in various natural and artificial samples along with the practical skills to handle chemical data. The spectroscopic techniques covered in this course includes UV-Vis, IR, NMR (1-D and 2-D) MS (including Tandem MS) etc. with more emphasis on the analysis of chemical data.

This course has covered applications, case studies, research data and handling of chemical data which has applications in various academic and industrial research including FDA, forensic science, clinical analysis, environment analysis and material analysis.

The learners in this course will benefit in a big way with all round content offered to develop practical skills of handling and interpretation of chemical data obtained from various instruments for qualitative and quantitative analysis. The learning outcomes will be measured through targeted questions in weekly tests, final exams and assignments as per the bloom level and Outcome Based Education (OBE).
