Learning outcomes
The student knows and understands:
K_W03: Knows the basics of nuclear chemistry and understands the importance of radioactivity in science, technology, and medicine.
K_W08: Possesses advanced knowledge and skills in computational methods appropriate for a given chemical specialization.
K_W10: Has a good understanding of current developments in chemistry and the latest scientific discoveries in a given chemical specialization.
The student is able to:
K_U02: Is able to analyze problems in nuclear chemistry and is able to assess its significance and threats to society.
K_U08: Possesses advanced knowledge and skills enabling the use of professional literature, databases, and other sources of information, and is able to assess the reliability of obtained information.
Assessment criteria
Each mandatory exercise is graded based on a written test and written description. The introductory exercise is graded solely on the written test, while the project exercise (optional) is graded based on the presentation of results. The grading scale is 2-5. Each exercise must receive a minimum grade of 3. The final grade is the arithmetic average of the grades from the 7 exercises.
Practical placement
Does not concern
