The aim of the course:
This course aims to teach experimental design practices that allow detailed analytical method optimization with a small number of experiments and to encourage the use of this approach by students.
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : Learns basic statistics for experimental design5,7,8,121,
PO - 2 : Gains a new perspective in the optimization of analytical processes5,7,8,121,
PO - 3 : Gains the ability to make detailed method optimization by performing a small number of experiments5,7,8,121,
PO - 4 : Understand that experimental design can be used not only in analytical chemistry but also in all areas where numerical parameters need to be optimized and incorporate experimental design into optimization processes in these fields5,7,8,121,
CTPO : Contribution to programme outcomes, TOA :Type of assessment (1: written exam, 2: Oral exam, 3: Homework assignment, 4: Laboratory exercise/exam, 5: Seminar / presentation, 6: Term paper), PO : Learning Outcome

 
Contents of the Course
One of the most important steps in analytical processes is method optimization, which is often carried out one parameter at a time. On the other hand, this approach requires a large number of experiments and ignores the factor interactions affecting the result. In this course, students will be introduced to methods for determining the factors affecting an outcome by performing a small number of experiments by experimental design and optimizing them using chemometric tools. The main objective of the course is to provide students with the ability to apply the experimental design approach to the optimization of any numerical result.
