At its core, it includes the underlying theory, instrumental design, applications, and operation of spectroscopic, electroanalytical, chromatiographic, and mass spectral instrumentation. It provides students with the requistic skills to identify the comparative advantages and disadvantages in choosing one analytical technique over another by combining direct comparisons of the techniques with a discussion of how these choices affect the interpretation of the data in its final form."--
