There are no prerequisites for this subject although it is recommended that the student has studied chemistry in high school. It is advisable that the student is taking the subject of Fundamentals of Chemistry
Basic Laboratory Operations, is a fundamentally experimental subject. In this subject it is intended that the student acquires good working practices in a laboratory, manipulating with responsibility and security the chemical products; he will begin to know the material, the instrumentation and the basic operations of a laboratory through a series of practical activities. Likewise, they will acquire the necessary skills to be able to correctly develop the practical experiments that will be required in other subjects of the curriculum and in their future professional life.
