Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

MAM-8.V.2 Engineering and Management, Master, ASPO 01.10.2004 , semester 8, mandatory course
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
30 class hours (= 22.5 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 60 hours (equivalent to 2 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 37.5 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr. Walter Calles
Lecturer: Prof. Dr. Walter Calles

Learning outcomes:
Students will acquire a basic understanding of corrosion processes, will learn to recognize the typical appearance of various types of corrosion and will be taught the measures used to prevent or ameliorate the corrosion and oxidation of materials. With this background, students should be able to understand the particular properties of the different classes of materials and be in a position to select the most appropriate type of corrosion protection.
