Educational objectives Forensic Analytical Chemistry deepens the potential applications of an analytical-instrumental approach for the resolution of disputes as a CTU or CTP expert. The teaching of Forensic Analytical Chemistry aims to provide examples of application of the most widespread instrumental chemical analysis techniques for determinations or comparisons on real matrices. Specific training objectives are: the ability to identify the instrumental investigation technique that is most suitable for solving the question asked; knowledge of the principles underlying the preparation of an expert report; the ability to evaluate and present analytical results of instrumental investigations.
The knowledge and skills acquired in this teaching will constitute a fundamental help to complete the analytical chemistry training of future master's graduates.
Students who have passed the exam will be able to know and understand (acquired knowledge)
- the best instrumental approach for solving the problem
- the method of relating an analytical result to a trial
- the procedures for drawing up an expert report
- the evaluation criteria of an expert survey
Students who have passed the exam will be able to (acquired skills):
- choose one or more analytical approaches;
- verify the quality and consistency of the analytical data obtained;
- choose the best analysis technique according to the sample to be analyzed.

Educational objectives Chemometrics is the branch of chemistry that uses mathematics and statistics to extract useful information from experimental data.
EXPECTED LEARNING RESULTS:
1) Knowledge and ability to understand
The course aims to provide students with an introduction to the main techniques for analyzing data, in particular multivariate data, produced in the context of chemical experiments. Starting from classical statistics and proceeding through approaches of increasing complexity, students will learn the main methodologies that allow a rational design of the experiments, an exploratory analysis of the collected data and the formulation of predictive models.
2) Applied knowledge and understanding skills
Through practical examples of application discussed in the classroom, the course aims to give students the chemometric bases to be able to critically apply the approaches illustrated to the various problems that may arise in the development, preparation and interpretation of the results of any chemical analysis or a chemical experiment, in general.
3) Autonomy of Judgment
During the course, students are stimulated through targeted questions and short discussions to extend the examples seen in the classroom to more general situations, so as to develop as much as possible the ability to critically evaluate every aspect of the execution of a chemometric analysis.
4) Communication Skills
In addition to the interaction during the lessons, through questions and short discussions, the course includes an oral exam for the passing of which students will have to acquire and demonstrate their ability to critically discuss the topics covered.
5) Learning Ability
The set of course topics is designed to present students with increasing complexity issues and guide them in identifying how to extrapolate from each of them those points that can be generalized to other specific cases. In this way, the goal is that students can acquire a modus cogitandi/modus operandi that allows them to select and critically apply the most suitable chemometric tools to solve any problem that may arise in their subsequent training and professional experience.
