Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

The primary objective of lectures is to create a complete picture of modern organic chemistry and necessary basics for other lectures (Biochemistry, Instrumental methods of analysis, Toxicology and contaminants in environment). Students will acquire basic knowledge to understand reactivity and reactions of organic compounds. IUPAC nomenclature of organic compounds and basic stereochemistry will also be discussed as necessary conditions.

Summary

The course is designed so that the students first acquire knowledges to understand the laws of organic chemistry compounds, followed by a summary of groups of organic compounds. Systematic view of important organic contaminants with aspect on their presence in environment will also be discussed.

Way of continuous check of knowledge in the course of semester

The student's knowledge is verified in written form, emphasis being given to understanding the subject and applying theoretical knowledge to solving practical problems. The evaluation also includes collective evaluation and self-assessment. An active assessment of the students is also included in the class. Each lab starts with a 5-minute six-question test, which the student demonstrates to read the tutorials and is able to work safely and purposefully. At least 3 questions must be answered correctly so that the task can be completed.
