Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: The students are able to
ad a.: apply physical concepts and laws from mechanics, electrostatics, electrodynamics, optics and solid-state physics in the context of materials science issues, analyse quantum mechanical model systems such as the harmonic oscillator and the particle in a box, and explain their significance for atomic, molecular and solid state physics.
ad b.: explain chemical principles relating to the structure and properties of materials, evaluate structural adjustments made using different synthesis processes, and analyse and compare the electrical, thermal, magnetic and optical properties of materials such as ceramics, metals, glass and polymers.
ad c.: describe crystallographic concepts such as long-range order, unit cells, Bravais lattices, point and space group symmetry, and systematically apply them to the classification and analysis of the most important mineral classes, taking into account the fundamentals of X-ray diffraction.
ad d.: examine material properties using mechanical, thermal, electrical and magnetic characterisation methods, evaluate the composition and microstructure of materials in terms of their effect on functional properties, and justify the systematic selection of metallic, ceramic, polymeric, semiconducting and composite materials in a differentiated manner.

Prerequisites for registration: positive completion of compulsory module 1

Learning Outcome: Students know how to apply geographic results and skills in order to identify, analyse and solve social problems in the context of space.

Prerequisites for registration: positive completion of compulsory module 1

Learning Outcome: Students are able to carry out autonomously a written contribution about a subject from the field of geography (physical geography or human geography), which meet the requirements of a good scientific practice and to present the results in the form of a
presentation.

Prerequisites for registration: Positive completion of compulsory modules 1 and 4.

Learning Outcome: Students can apply geographical findings and competences to solve socially-relevant problems.

Prerequisites for registration: Positive completion of compulsory modules 1 and 4.

Learning Outcome: Students are able to produce a peace of written work on a topic from a geographical topic (physical-geography or human geography) that meets the requirements of good scientific practice and they can present their findings in the form of a lecture.

Prerequisites for registration: The prerequisites of the respective curricula are to be fulfilled.

Learning Outcome: This module expands the range of the study programme and provides additional
qualifications. Students acquire qualifications that allow them to engage in scientific
discourse beyond the boundaries of their own field, constructively, responsibly and with
sensitivity to gender issues.
