Learning outcomes of the course :  
At the end of the course, students will be able to:
· identify the interactions involved in solid state NMR;
· understand and explain the main techniques of solid state NMR (MAS, CP, decoupling) and some common pulse sequences
· analyse experimental procedures and results from the literature.
