Evaluation method and criteria
The final grade is based on a Presentation (50%) and a Presentation Report (50%). A total score of 60 or higher is required to pass.

Grading Scale (100-point scale)
90 points or above (Excellent):
The student can perfectly explain the correlations between manufacturing, microstructure, thermodynamics, and functions based on physicochemical evidence. Furthermore, they can provide logical personal insights regarding challenges in material design and future perspectives that go beyond existing knowledge. They also demonstrate the ability to analyze and discuss the characteristics of advanced materials accurately and from multiple perspectives by linking them with fundamental theories.

80 points or above (Good):
The student can appropriately explain common aspects of advanced materials (such as manufacturing and structure) with almost no deficiencies. They understand the relationship between the properties of representative advanced materials and fundamental concepts and can describe them logically, including their own insights. Additionally, they can use technical terminology correctly and provide answers that align with the intent of the questions.

60 points or above (Fair/Pass):
The student has a general understanding of fundamental concepts such as manufacturing methods, processing techniques, and thermodynamics covered in the lectures. They can provide standard descriptions of the relationship between practical examples and basic principles based on textbooks and provided materials. Furthermore, there are no critical errors in their descriptions, demonstrating a level of knowledge sufficient for a passing grade.
