Analytical Chemistry

Analytical Chemistry plays an active role in stages such as drug research and development (R&D), quantitative and qualitative drug analysis, quality control and standardization. The main goal of this discipline is to ensure that students have sufficient theoretical and methodological knowledge to perform chemical and instrumental analyses of inorganic and organic substances, including drugs. Another aim of the department is to train individuals who have fundamental knowledge of Analytical Chemistry and drug analysis, have acquired analytical thinking skills, and can generate ideas that may become the subject of national and international research projects and be applied in industry.
