Course Objective

The course aims to provide an introduction to mass spectrometry techniques, to give a detailed presentation of mass spectrometry especially in terms of , theoritical bases, interpretetion of a wide variaty of mass spectral data and its applications in chemical analysis.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1	This course is expected to help the students to provide an introduction to mass spectrometry techniques into detail in terms of instrumentation and theory, to make an assessment on analysis with mass spectroscopy
2	To develop the students analytical thinking abilities and to give the ability to criticize and solve problems regarding instrumental analysis with MS, correct desicions regarding chooise of instrument.
3	To give the students further information on interpertation of mass spectarl fragmants for a wide wariaty of organic compounds
4	To give the students further information on skills, pretreatment, and interpertation of mass spectral fragmants of samples regarding environmental, criminal, medical, drug, polymer and, new materials.
5	To give the students thinking abilitiy on comparison of MS based approachs, their advantages and disadvantagaes over each other, and making interpretation considering concequenses of the analysis.
