Laboratory of Inorganic Chemistry

Studies

The laboratory provides courses in inorganic and materials chemistry at basic, intermediate, and advanced levels. The basic and intermediate level courses are lectured annually and the advanced level courses typically biannually. For the detailed schedule see the study guide or http://www.helsinki.fi/kemia/opiskelu/index.htm (both in Finnish). You can also contact Department’s counselling officers. The credits are in accordance with European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).
