Course detail
Chemistry
FSI-WCMAcad. year: 2023/2024
The course is focused on basic knowledge of chemistry necessary for area of material engineering. Main focus is on understanding of basic interactions on atomic level and related basic material; properties, connections among structures, bonding and thermodynamics are demonstrated. Lectures give an overview of elementary principles in material science (especially a material selection) and related technical applications.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
Credits will be awarded only if students attends all group trainings and after completion of assigned tasks. In justified cases the compensatory conditions may be given if a student did not enter a group training.
Aims
Students will be able to apply gain knowledge during continuing Master program, which is focused on material engineering, as well as during solving of specific industrial problems related to chemistry. The course if focused on terminology and basic relations in chemistry.
