Program Overview

The Chemistry for Cultural Heritage program is an integrated teaching course that consists of two main subjects: General and Inorganic Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry.

Aims and Content

Learning Outcomes

The program aims to teach students the fundamental concepts of inorganic chemistry, including the structure of matter, systematics and nomenclature of basic compounds, mass of compounds and chemical transformations, characteristics of gas state, acids and bases, solutions and concentrations, and electrochemistry. Additionally, students will learn the basic foundations of organic chemistry, with a focus on the structure, nomenclature, synthesis, and reactivity of main classes of organic compounds, such as alkanes, alkenes, aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds, alcohols and phenols, ethers, carbonyl derivatives, carboxylic derivatives, and amines. Students will also gain knowledge of the main classes of primary metabolites, including amino acids, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids.
