Guidelines in Requesting for Consultation and Technical Assistance

The following guidelines will only apply to requests for consultation and technical assistance from the Institute. All inquiries or requests for analytical services must be forwarded to the Analytical Service Laboratory ([email protected]).  You may also visit the laboratory’s webpage through the Institute’s website for more information (IC Website > Extension > Analytical Service Laboratory).

A formal letter duly signed by the researchers, adviser, and unit head must be submitted to the Institute of Chemistry through fax (049-536-2241) or e-mail ([email protected]). The request letter should contain an active e-mail address and phone number, and must be addressed to:

Only approved requests for consultation and technical assistance will be entertained. The Institute will not give research topics to students unless there is an existing agreement between the two parties. Requests for the use of equipment or laboratory are subject to approval; the Institute has the right to deny such requests.

The Coordinator for Extension will schedule an appointment with a consultant and inform the requesting party. The Institute has the right to deny requests from walk-in clients if no prior appointment was made. The student must present an outline of the proposed work during the consultation.
