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.
