Course description and aims
Learn fundamentals of materials and applied chemistry that will introduce specialized subjects of materials and chemical engineering, mainly focused on freshmen from the School of Materials and Chemical Engineering, based on the introduction of materials and chemical engineering A. Also, with a view to research from the foundation, it shows the path to grow to engineers and researchers who can be active worldwide. Appreciation of ethic as scientist and engineer is an important subject in this course. The experience of learning the lectures delivered in English will lead the useful guideline to develop future perspectives.
Student learning outcomes
Understand the fundamentals of materials and chemical engineering.
Keywords
