PREREQUISITES
Basic course in Mathematical Statistics (IEK020), basic course in general chemistry (e.g. KMK042), and - completed - basic engineering courses from the third year at the university (e.g. KMM005, KMP004, KMT002 and KMT003.

COURSE AIM
To develop skills in research planning, optimisation and multivariate data analysis with their application to industrial processes.

CONTENTS
The course is about the extraction of information from chemical process data. It contains experimental design (factorial designs with several levels, reduced factorial designs), response surface models and variance analysis. Within multivariate analysis the following is treated: principal component analysis (PCA), principal component regression (PCR), "partial-least-squares"-regression (PLS), multivariate discriminant analysis (SIMCA), time lags in data, and multivariate statistical process control (MSPC). An orientation about other multivariate techniques is included. The education is based on data from industrial processes.

TEACHING
The instruction consists of lectures, lessons, compulsory assignments/laboratory classes and a project. For each assignments, the students have to provide a report, which should be statistically and grammatically correct. The project report should be in a standard report format typical for an industrial report. It shall be defended at a joint seminar.
