Abstract: Analytical Chemistry, with “quantity” as its core, is a compulsory foundational course for undergraduate chemistry students. The introduction of an English-language course in Chemical Analysis plays a crucial role in helping students learn the fundamental concepts of analytical chemistry and master related experimental skills in professional English, while also fostering a comprehensive and global perspective on the subject. Integrating ideological and political education into the teaching process of the English-language Chemical Analysis course can effectively enhance students’ patriotism and cultural confidence, cultivate a spirit of truth-seeking, pragmatism, diligence, and rigor, and strengthen students’ sense of social responsibility. This paper discusses the selection of ideological and political elements in the English-language Chemical Analysis course and explores effective methods for integrating ideological and political education. It also examines the interaction and integration of ideological and political education between theoretical and laboratory courses, with the aim of providing valuable insights and practical approaches for the ideological and political development of the English-language Chemical Analysis course.

Key words: Chemical analysis, English course, Ideological and political education in the curriculum
