ECTS credit allocation (and other scores): 1.50 Basic information on ECTS credits allocation principles:
  • the annual hourly workload of the student’s work required to achieve the expected learning outcomes for a given stage is 1500-1800h, corresponding to 60 ECTS;
  • the student’s weekly hourly workload is 45 h;
  • 1 ECTS point corresponds to 25-30 hours of student work needed to achieve the assumed learning outcomes;
  • weekly student workload necessary to achieve the assumed learning outcomes allows to obtain 1.5 ECTS;
  • work required to pass the course, which has been assigned 3 ECTS, constitutes 10% of the semester student load.
Language: Polish
Type of course:

elective monographs

Prerequisites (description):

Knowledge of foundations of organic, physical and inorganic chemistry

Mode:

Classroom

Short description:

The course An Introduction to Supramolecular Chemistry gives an introduction to basic as well as more specific issues related to the chemistry of intermolecular interactions (supramolecular chemistry). Topics presented during this course are exemplified by a biotic as well as abiotic supramolecular systems. The course in divided into four main parts: 1) Intermolecular forces; 2) Alkaline and alkaline earth metals cations receptors; 3) Anions and Ion-pair receptors and sensors; 4) Self-assembling systems and molecular machines.
