Abstract In a workstation laboratory design all of the experiments are carried out at the same time. At the beginning of the semester at least one workstation is set up for each experiment. One of the students is assigned Experiment 1, the next student is assigned Experiment 2 and so on. The following week each student moves to the next experiment in the sequence. Exercises which may require expensive equipment can be carried out on a rather limited budget as one needs only one or two set ups for each experiment. There are also additional savings as considerably less reserve and replacement glassware and equipment is needed
