Learning outcomes
In the course students participate in laboratory work of ongoing research projects at the department. After passing the course a student is able to give examples of biotechnological solutions in energy production, sustainable production and environmental protection and related experimental methods. A student knows the analytical methods and instruments used during the course and the principles of using them. After passing the course a student knows the theoretical background of the laboratory work, can interpret measurement data and analysis and write a clear report of the results.
