Students are able to
• assess chemical hazards (sources) and behave accordingly.
They know about
• the basics of chemistry
They can
• actively and passively follow chemistry-related topics (in the professional environment as well as in other courses, eg Materials Science, Corrosion & Corrosion Protection, Batteries and Accumulators, etc.). (Ideally, even simpler chemical calculations should be carried out independently.)
