Course description
Students learn about physical chemistry used in biotechnology. This class consists of the presentations by the attending students. The presenter have to report physicochemical points about new materials or new physicochemical measurements. The other participants ask the presenter some questions and evaluate the presenter.
Expected Learning
Students who successfully complete this class will be able to:
(1) Understand and the physicochemical properties of new materials and the principals of new physicochemical measurements and explain these to the other students.
(2) Understand the physicochemical aspects of new materials and the principals of new physicochemical measurements through the presentations by the other participants.
