- Absolving of the course C9920.
- Course Enrolment Limitations
- The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
- fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
- there are 12 fields of study the course is directly associated with, display
- Course objectives
- The goal of the course is to explain to students relationships between molecular electronic structure and spectroscopical parameters.
- Learning outcomes
- At the end of the course, students will understand relationships between molecular structure (geometric as well as electronic) and molecular spectroscopy parameters. They will be able to interpret simple spectra rotational, vibrational, electronic and magnetic resonance ones.

- Teaching methods
- Lectures (100 minutes a week, 10 minutes break) and homeworks. Voluntary assignments will be given to students every week, can be handed in for correction at next lecture.
- Assessment methods
- (1) Written test in Czech or English (on choice). A sample test will be put in IS in the mid-semester at latest. The percent composition: ca 50% of lecture’s content and 50% of homework content. 6 pages, maximum 10 points for each. A: 60-54 points, B: 53-48 points, etc. (2) Oral part in Czech or English (on choice). 2 pages of the test with the lowest scores will be discussed. Maximum influence of the oral part result on the final grade: Written A or F: no influence. Written B or E: one grade up or down. Written C or D: two grades up or down.
