Outline and Purpose of the Course (Aim) This course aims to teach students approaches to basic experiment methods in physical chemistry and structural biology, as well as experiment planning skills and teaching methods.

(Summary) In this course, students will plan practical training and experiments relating to physical chemistry and structural biology for Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences undergraduates in Specialized Training for Pharmacy 1, make preparations for and conduct preliminary experiments prior to beginning practical training, and guide students during practical training.
Course Goals To develop the ability to plan and conduct suitable basic experiments relating to physical chemistry and structural biology. To develop the ability to guide undergraduate students in preparation and preliminary experiments prior to beginning practical training as well as during practical training.

Evaluation Methods and Policy Students will be comprehensively evaluated based on practical training attendance, development and planning of practical training, preparation and preliminary experiments, and the quality and appropriateness of their instruction in practical training.
Course Requirements None
Study outside of Class (preparation and review) Students should make preparations and conduct preliminary experiments to enable specialized training in pharmaceutical sciences to be carried out appropriately. Once the practical training is complete, students should arrange the training room appropriately for the next practical training session.
