Learning Outcomes
Competences
Upon successful completion of the course, students are able to integrate and apply advanced knowledge in the broader area of surface science and to critically assess experimental methods and results. They demonstrate the ability to evaluate complex scientific information and to synthesize insights from current research. They are able to connect experimental approaches to practical applications in surface science.
Skills Knowledge
Upon completing the course, students will possess the following skills. They are able to

  • explain and summarize specific topics within the broader area of surface science, demonstrating a clear understanding of key concepts and recent developments (k2);
  • explain and evaluate experimental approaches within the broader area of surface science (k2/k3);
  • critically engage with current research topics and assess recent developments in the field, connecting them to broader scientific questions and challenges in surface science (k4/k5);
  • assess the relevance of surface science to emerging technologies and applications, providing critical insights into its potential impact (k5).
During the course, students will acquire knowledge about specific and recent topics in the broader area of surface science. The actual topic of the lecture is announced each semester in the KUSSS system or can be requested from the person responsible for the lecture.
Criteria for evaluation Evaluation criteria will be announced at the beginning of the semester.
Methods The course primarily consists of lectures on current topics in experimental surface science.
