| Learning Outcome: | After successfully completing the module, the students have a sound understanding of the basic concepts and the essential experimental techniques of heterogeneous nanocatalysis. Building on the topics of this module, they master methods for gaining knowledge, the classification of physical findings in the overall context and the networking of individual results.
In addition, the students can use social competences such as the ability to cooperate as well as further individual competences such as accuracy, patience, curiosity, initiative, etc. of the students. |
