Module studies

You complete the module studies with an examination and receive the specified credit points. These can be credited towards a Bachelor's or Master's degree. The modular study programme is interesting for you if you only want to book a single module. At the end, you will receive a certificate with a detailed list of your achievements.

F4 Modelling of Chemical Properties and Fate
Product information "Modelling of Chemical Properties and Fate"

The module covers the background and practical application of substance evaluation using computer-based methods. Due to improvements in computational power, computer-based methods have changed the traditional way to engage in experimental science. Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models link a property or effect, such as boiling point or toxicity, to parameters associated with chemical structure. These models can be used to assess chemical substances within the so-called in silico approach (as an analogy to the in vitro and in vivo approach). After a basic introduction, this module mainly focuses on the practical application and applicability of in silico software and assessment.
