Teaching Method

Outline:

This course is designed to provide students with a deep knowledge of materials around us as well as latest materials. Evaluation of the strength of materials is also explained in this course.

Style:

Lectures and exercises by an instructor

Notice:

Students who earned less than 60 points may be given a chance to sit for an extra exam upon request if there is a justifiable reason. 60 points will be given to those students who are assumed to be complete the course based on the results of such extra exam.
