Chemistry of cosmetics
Some basic information about the module
The aim of studying and bibliography
The main aim of study:
This unit provides students with knowledge in the structure of organic and inorganic chemicals used in the manufacture of cosmetics. The students are expected to get the basic knowledge of physicochemical properties and reactivity of chemical substances used in the manufacture of cosmetics. In this module, students will be taught about the chemistry involved in the cosmetics business, the manufacture of beauty products.
The general information about the module:
The module is realized on the 5 term of the field of study: Biotechnology, speciality: Applied biochemistry (BS) and includes 15 hours of lectures and 15 hours of laboratory exercises. The module ends with a final test.

| The type of classes | The way of giving the final grade |
|---|---|
| Lecture | Grade from written colloquium |
| Laboratory | Grade is an average of laboratory colloquia |
| The final grade | Final grade (OK) is calculated as average of a lectures-based written colloquium (W), and from laboratory exercises (L) OK = 0.5W + 0.5L Grades are multiplied with 1 for first evaluation deadline, 0.9 for 1st retake and 0.8 for 2nd retake. |
