Hands-On Pharmaceutical Spectroscopy Training: FTIR, Raman, NIR, XRF, PAT, and Chemometrics

December 8-10, 2026

Course Highlights

  • Experience hands-on spectroscopy labs using FTIR, Raman, NIR, and XRF spectroscopy on real pharma samples
  • Explore micro-scale insights through micro-Raman mapping
  • See real-time process understanding with inline PAT monitoring
  • Chemometrics bootcamp: work together through multivariate analysis using pharma‑relevant examples
  • Train in small vendor-led groups with applied chemometrics and cross-functional industry focus (30% lecture and 70%  hands-on training) 

Course Objectives

By the end of the course, students will be able to:

  • Develop new contacts with faculty and attendees.
  • Apply core spectroscopy techniques for material identification, characterization, and process insight.
  • Perform and interpret measurements across benchtop, handheld, and in‑process systems.
  • Build powerful chemometric models using multivariate regression and classification tools.
  • Select effective spectroscopic strategies to solve R&D, quality, manufacturing, and regulatory challenges.

Who Should Attend?

This course is ideal for professionals in regulatory affairs, quality assurance, manufacturing, and pharmaceutical R&D who want practical, hands‑on experience with spectroscopy.

Scientists, engineers, and regulatory reviewers will gain clear insight into how modern tools enhance product quality. New and early-career professionals will appreciate its welcoming, application-focused format.
