This course provides basic knowledge of social work in Sweden. The goal is to enhance theoretical and practical knowledge of social work in Sweden and highlight the different types of actors and contexts where social work operates (public, private, and voluntary sector). The course focuses on Swedish social work, but also embraces the students' prior knowledge and experiences of social work in different environments. In the first part of the course, students map their conception of social work in Sweden followed by a theoretical introduction to welfare and social work in Swedish society from a historical perspective to the present situation, including current changes. Legal aspects of the society and social work are highlighted. In the second part of the course, the focus is on practical social work. Students are introduced to different perspectives of social work through field studies and discussions with professional social workers and service users who represent different organizations and authorities.

The course describes pharmaceutical products and production, with an emphasis on physicochemical and chemical engineering questions. It also describes what happens to the drug product in the living organism when administered through different routes. The course focuses on different pharmaceutical formulations such as solutions, suspensions, emulsions, granulates, tablets, capsules, aerosols, and creams. The course gives an overview of the quality aspects of the pharmaceutical industry, and special requirements on the pharmaceutical industry when it comes to demands from authorities both Swedish and international. The laboratory assignments illustrate important formulation aspects and how to evaluate the quality and physical-chemical properties of the formulation. 

The course treats multiplicative number theoretic functions, Möbius inversion formula, properties of Euler's totient function, primitive roots and indices, quadratic residues, the Legendre symbol and it's properties, the quadratic reciprocity theorem, representations of integers as sums of squares, number theoretic properties of the Fibonacci sequence, continued fractions, Diophantine approximation.
