Description

Version: 5.0 start 01 August 2024
 

Short description

 Students  acquire the ability to understand, analyse and answer current, problem-based questions of energy and environmental technology using materials science and chemistry models and tools.
They study the relevant properties of materials and substances in combined theoretical and practical work.
