Introduction

A workshop style training course covering the important principles and practices underlying 21st century analytical science.

The aim of the course is to emphasise the problem-based nature of analytical science and to highlight in particular the importance of aspects such as sampling and quality systems in today's regulated industrial environment. In addition, the course will consider some of the analytical technologies which are used to solve the complex problems presented to today's analytical scientists.

This course is organised with Kingston University and will be taught by specialist analytical scientists both from academia and industry. 

Benefits to you and your organisation

Many new graduates and postgraduates leave university without structured knowledge of analytical science and are thus unaware of the vast scope and importance of the subject.

It is acknowledged that a better understanding and realisation of the scope of analytical science can benefit both the individual in their effectiveness within their organisation and the organisation itself, through increased productivity, information gathering and/or cost effective measurement.

Who should attend?

The course will be aimed particularly at new graduates and postgraduates starting a career as either an analytical scientist, or as a chemical scientist who is a frequent user of analytical measurements. The course could also prove useful as a refresher/updating course for more experienced industrial chemists.
