Teaching Methods The Analytical Chemistry module includes 4 CFU of lectures and 2 CFU in the laboratory where the various topics will be addressed and which will find enrichment in laboratory lessons in order to deepen the technical and manual skills.
Evaluation methods Verification of learning:
The exam of the Analytical Chemistry module consists of a written test lasting 120 minutes in which 5 exercises will be proposed. The exercises may also include theory questions. This test allows you to achieve a maximum score of 30. If the score is less than 15, the test is considered insufficient. The oral exam is an element of evaluation and the final grade will be established taking into account the scores achieved in the two tests.
