The second year is oriented towards specific applications of analytical chemistry and is spent either at UCBL, UU or AAU. The particular strengths of the partner universities are:<br>&#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/each.ut.ee\/EACH\/organic-and-bioorganic-analysis-advanced-separation-methods\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UU: organic analysis, separation methods and mass spectrometry, especially as applied to biological samples<\/a>;<br>&#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/each.ut.ee\/EACH\/industrial-analysis-and-process-control\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UCBL: industrial analytical chemistry and process control<\/a>;<br>&#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/each.ut.ee\/EACH\/advanced-analytical-devices-sensors-miniaturization-electrochemistry\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">AAU: sensors, advanced analytical instrumentation and electrochemistry<\/a>.<br>The complementary competences of the universities enable the students to acquire both fundamental knowledge and practical skills at the highest contemporary level. The EACH programme has well-established cooperation with a number of companies: Solvay, Sanofi, Axel&#8217;One, Neste, Servier, Recipharm, etc. Their active involvement via teaching courses and supervising internships ensures that EACH responds to needs in industry, including the newly emerging areas of analytical chemistry: nano-analysis, in vivo microanalysis, \u201comics\u201d, process control, etc. This &#8220;practical touch&#8221; ensures good employment prospects of the EACH graduates. EACH is suitable both for the graduates of bachelor&#8217;s studies (or equivalent), and analytical chemists in industry and labs. EACH is distinguished from other analytical chemistry programmes by its strong emphasis on metrology (traceability, measurement uncertainty, etc) and on the socio-economic aspects of analytical chemistry (costs and legal implications of chemical analysis, climate, public security, etc).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On completion of studies <strong>double degrees<\/strong> are awarded.
