[updated 04.03.2024]
Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

MAM_19_V_2.07.ATK (P241-0008) Engineering and Management, Master, ASPO 01.10.2019 , semester 2, mandatory course, Specialization Process Engineering
MAM_24_V_2.07.ATK Engineering and Management, Master, ASPO 01.10.2024 , semester 2, mandatory course, Specialization Process Engineering
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).
90 class hours (= 67.5 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 180 hours (equivalent to 6 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 112.5 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr. Matthias Faust
Lecturer: Prof. Dr. Matthias Faust

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will be familiar with the various components of process engineering/energy technology systems, be able to assemble systems from them and design them in accordance with the relevant regulations.
 
They will be able to understand, explain and calculate selected basic operations in process engineering and its equipment and to create models based on the physical/chemical relationships.
