Course content
The seminar is dedicated to the latest scientific results in the field of analytical chemistry. The course is updated annually according to the most recent published results and is conducted in an interactive discussion format. The main aim of the course is to introduce the student to the field of analytical chemistry, to introduce some practical aspects by means of excursions to analytical chemistry departments and to provide know-how "how to write professional texts", i.e. especially preparation for writing theses/professional publications. The course includes database literature searches (SciFinder, Web of Science, Medline) and literature reference processing (e.g. Endnote). In preparation for the actual thesis defence, the course also aims to teach students to present their experimental results clearly and comprehensibly in oral form (lecture with presentation of results, Czech and English). One-hour lectures by invited lecturers (from outside Olomouc, abroad) will be included as often as possible. Home preparation is also important, which includes work with computer evaluation of mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy spectra.
