Course description
The theoretical classes (1, 3, 5, 8, 10, 12) and exam classes (7 and 14) are held in the classroom, while the laboratory classes (2, 4, 6, 9, 11, 13) are held in technoplaza common facilities.
In order to become an excellent engineer or researcher, it is mandatory to afford experiments in laboratory and know the theory behind experimental techniques. This course is given by international faculty members. Various experimental techniques are introduced such as: Physical Properties Measurement System (PPMS); Fourier-Transform Infra-Red spectroscopy (FT-IR); X-Ray Diffraction (XRD); Raman spectroscopy;.Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM; Thermogravimetry and Differential Thermal Analysis (TG/DTA). For each technique, one class about working principles and introduction to the chemical and/or physical theory behind will be given, followed by a class of basic experience in laboratory. The students will be divided in small groups (3 or 4 each) and each group will team to prepare the reports and presentations of each experience.
Purpose of class
The students will be able to use the standard characterization techniques which constitute the grounds of applied materials science. Students will be able to explain the basic scientific and technical principles of advanced equipment and apply them in the laboratory, to obtain reliable data.They will also obtain experience on how to work in a team, write experimental reports and prepare presentations.

Evaluation method and criteria
Each questionnaire will contribute for 15% to student`s grade. Totally 2 questionnaires will be replied in the classroom so total score for the questionnaires is at maximum 30% of the grade

Each presentation will contribute for 15% to student`s grade. Totally 2 presentations must be provided (for one technique of choice from the first three and for one technique of choice from the second three) so total score for the presentations is at maximum 30% of the grade

Each report will contribute for 6.66% to student`s grade.
Totally 6 reports must be provided (for every experimental class) so total score for the reports is at maximum 40% of the grade

To pass the student must earn a total score of 60% or more.
