Completed subjects Organic Chemistry I and Organic Chemistry II
Prerequisites for taking the course: passed lab exercises
Obligations of students in teaching and ways of their execution:
1. Attending lectures
2. Attending laboratory exercises
Teaching methods:
1. Lectures - Power point presentations
2. Exercises - laboratory work
Method of testing knowledge and taking exams:
The exam consists of a practical, written and oral part.
Assessment of knowledge and preparation of students for the practical lab work takes place at the beginning of the lab work, and is assessed after the presentation of the report.
Method of monitoring the quality and success of the course: Student survey
Course learning outcomes:
1.compare methods of synthesis of polymeric materials
2. distinguish the mechanisms of catalytic polymerization processes
3. develop the ability to adopt the basic elements of chemistry and materials engineering related to the chemical composition, structure, production, properties and application
4. plan independent work in the chemical and physical laboratory,
5. develop the ability to monitor production processes and control product quality
6. independently present laboratory results in written and oral form
Learning outcomes at the level of the program to which the course contributes:
1. identify the basic elements of material chemistry and engineering: structure, properties, production and use of materials
2. describe different types of materials (especially mineral binders, ceramics, polymers and metals and alloys), their use and production technologies
3. connect the acquired knowledge about materials, their use and production
4. define simple problems in the field of chemistry and materials engineering in order to solve them
5. analyze materials using chemical and physical techniques and laboratory equipment and devices
6. organize effective work in the laboratory, independently or as part of a multidisciplinary team
