Course Objective

In this course, formal methods for the selection and optimization of analytical methods and procedures and for the interpretation of data will be disscussed and explained in details.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   To be able to learn how the experimental data are evaluated statistically.
2   To be able to explain methods ad algorithms for the analysis and modeling of experimental data.
3   To be able to analyse analytical problems, carry out planning and design of experiments, present of the results.
4   To be able to propose suitable statistical methods for optimization of analytical procedure, compare F-test, paired t- test, analysis of variance.
5   To be able to explain formal methods for the selection and optimization of analytical methods and procedures and discuss the interpretation of data.
