This course introduces foundations of analytical chemistry at the undergraduate level. You will study conventional, optical
and electrochemical methods of chemical analysis. Basics of data acquisition and treatment will also be taught.
The aim of this course is to help students understand basic methods for gathering qualitative and quantitative information
about the composition of the matter and how those methods can be used to solve analytical problems in chemistry.
