Before the student can take part in the compulsory lab teaching, the student must undergo the KJ105F Laboratory safety course. The laboratory safety course is a precondition to participate in the lab exercises.

The teaching activities in the course presuppose that the student is on campus.

Work requirements (AK) 1 Theory exercises:

• Students are encouraged to submit all 8 theory exercises.
• A minimum of 4 submitted theory exercises must meet the minimum requirement to be approved, at the same time as at least every other exercise must be submitted and approved.

• The first theory exercise is performed in set groups, the last 7 are individual.

Work requirements (AK) 2: Laboratory exercises with subsequent lab reports

• Students are encouraged to participate in all 5 lab exercises and submit all lab reports.
• In order to fulfill the work requirement, the student must have performed all the tasks that belong to the lab exercise. In the event of unforeseen events, lab teachers can grant exemption from individual assignments for the student (s) in question. In this case, this must be clarified before leaving the laboratory.

• The sheets must be stapled together (not paper clips), and any spiral edges must be cut away.

The student's name must be legible at the top of the first page.

Approval of lab reports in the spring semester presupposes that the student has approved compulsory participation for laboratory exercises from the autumn semester. It will not be possible to perform lab exercises in the spring semester.
• Lab report can only be submitted for lab exercises where the student has participated.
• In order to be an acceptable lab report, it must contain everything that is requested in the lab booklet, as well as any calculations needed to arrive at the answers. In addition, the report must contain a short conclusion where the student evaluates the results and comments on any deviations from what was expected.
