New and ongoing Zoom courses for doctoral students

Published Mar 30, 2020

In light of the Coronavirus, the number of remote courses for doctoral students is now being extended. On this page is a list of new courses within the CBH School's areas.

NMR Spectroscopy and imaging – basic principles (4.5 ECTS)

FCK3311 NMR Spectroscopy and imaging – basic principles

The lectures are given to be by István Furó. The course is intended to provide a reasonably detailed physico-chemical introduction to NMR spectroscopy. It is based on classical physical concepts and does not shy away from mathematics (because hands are sometimes not large enough for handwaving).

This is a Zoom course and the lectures are to be given live on Thursdays 10.15-12 and Tuesdays 13:15 – 15 (recorded lectures on Canvas). It is planned that on Tuesdays the lectures are followed by consultations. The time table may change as we may adjust the frequency to demand. The preliminary length is 5 weeks. All are welcome to the lectures.

The Zoom address will not and should NOT be posted on-line (but you are welcome to forward Zoom invite by e-mail). If interested to attend either the course or the lectures send a message by with “Attend FKC3311 NMR” to furo@kth.se  as the lecturer would like to have an initial idea who might attend.

Possible continuations to this course are:
FCK3312 NMR Spectroscopy and imaging – quantum mechanical principles 4.5 credits, that treats NMR on quantum mechanical basis and is aimed at understanding the operating principles of popular multidimensional NMR experiments. This is a Zoom course, starting immediately after FCK3311. A new PhD course based on the master course KD2155 Solid State Chemistry: Structures and Methods 7.5 credits, that – besides taking up other things, too – is expanding the view in the direction of solid-state NMR. Contact sergeid@kth.se  F3B5436 Molecular Structure and Dynamics by NMR Spectroscopy (probaly a new code and title and extent) that provides a more hands-on treatment of the use of NMR spectroscopy for determining organic molecular structures. Contact zoltan@kth.se

Computational Chemistry (7.5 hp)

Lectures will be given by associate professor Zilvinas Rinkevicius. It will start on Tuesday, March 31, at 10:00-12:00 and continue with lectures on Tuesdays and Fridays from 10:00-12:00 for six weeks.

All students or postdocs that would benefit from such a course are welcome to join in.

The Zoom course will be based on the regular PhD course: www.kth.se/student/kurser/kurs/FCK3001
