	Description	Methods of instruction	Implementation
Implementation 1	Photochemisry laboratory course is a practical introduction to optical spectroscopy methods in application to chemistry and photochemistry. The exercises are carried out in research laboratory using advanced research grade instruments. The practical part ranges from steady state measurements of very low molecular concentrations to time-resolved measurements of a very fast (subnanosecond) intermolecular reaction.
