Course Syllabus
Welcome to the course KEM750 Advanced Organic Synthesis spring 2020!
Course period: 2020-03-26 - 2020-06-05
The 26th of March 2020 KEM750 will begin with a mandatory row call. As a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, the row call as well as all lectures and seminars will take place on Zoom (see below for more information). It is important that you can attend the row call since information regarding the how the course will be organized under the present situation will be provided. Please, consult the course organization document and the course schedule prior to the row call. We will follow the same arrangement as of previous years with the only change involving using the communication platform Zoom instead of meeting in person. Thus, for you to be able to follow the course, you have to have a computer with both audio and video, a good internet connection and a device that can take photos (e.g. smart phone).
