In this course, the main atomic and mass spectrometry methods are presented in their theoretical, performance and application aspects. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES Theoretical knowledge of the spectroscopic methods for elemental analysis and of the mass spectrometry techniques TEACHING METHODS Lectures and bibliographic/laboratory work (for Chemical Sciences only). Slides and further educational material (articles, video,…) available on aulaweb SYLLABUS/CONTENT A.
