| Learning Outcome: | In the practical research training programme, students can apply and deepen the theoretical concepts, methods and strategies they have learnt during their studies when working on a complex scientific problem in the field of materials chemistry or process engineering. Using the infrastructure of external research institutions, students also acquire knowledge and skills in new methods and technologies. They become familiar with organisational forms of research networks. At the end of the module, students will have consolidated skills in dealing with scientific information sources, in data collection, documentation and evaluation as well as in summarising, presenting and discussing scientific results. |
