Course content

The course intends to present new, relevant and advanced topics within modern materials science and engineering. The selection of topics will depend on the candidates. The course will be based on new original literature and will require an active participation from the candidates.

Learning outcome

The candidates shall after having finished the course and passed the exam: * Demonstrate extensive knowledge and skills related to selected topics covered by the course * Be able to use this knowledge and skills to discuss and analyse relevant problems connected to these topics. * Be able to prepare and present selected topics from the course in form of Power-Point presentations for colleagues and fellow students.
