For example, studying intermediate studies may require some completed basic studies. These are described on the Information about studies tab of the study unit under prior requirements.</p><p>When you have been admitted to the studies, you must enrol separately via the Sisu information system for the implementation of the unit of study and, for example if set, for a practise group of your choice. You will receive instructions on how to do this by e-mail after you have confirmed your acceptance of the study place by paying the required fee.</p>

After successful completion of the course the student will understand the physical operating principles of biosensors.  He/she knows the basic terms and definitions.  He/she understand the biology of the sensing elements and specific molecular recognition principles.  The student is able to give examples of different biosensor structures and is able to understand and analyse measurement circuits and amplifiers that have been used with them. The student can model and simulate the function of simple biosensors. He/she understands the limitations of the sensors. The student can list different biosensors and of their application areas.
