This course will interactively engage students cognitively and scientifically in areas of spectroscopy and chromatography. Students will define concepts, state and explain spectroscopic and chromatographic theories, make decision and justification as to the possible outcome of an analysis, perform investigations via laboratory exercises and in writing, discuss results of investigations leading to its relation to the spectroscopic and chromatographic principles or theories. The lecture session is used to discuss the instrumentation and application of each spectroscopic and chromatographic technique. The outcomes shall be assessed through a variety of tools which include the final examination, tests and quizzes, laboratory reports and classroom engagement.
