LEARNING OUTCOMES

This course exposes students to state-of-the-art developments in some specific engineering materials, or processes related to engineering materials, and examines the multicultural technological, societal, and historical context in which materials research and development occur.

During the course, the students will learn to locate and read scientific literature in their field, to critically evaluate it, they will collaborate and discuss with colleagues whose perspectives are rooted in other languages and cultures, and they will become familiar with the format and style of scientific literature and conference presentations.
