Purpose and description of the content of education:
The Module of Technologies and Materials Processing aims to familiarize students with various techniques of obtaining and processing engineering materials. The main goal of this module is to enable students to expand their knowledge of technological processes used in the production of engineering materials and methods of processing them to achieve specific shapes, structures, and properties. By acquiring such knowledge, students will be able to effectively select appropriate technologies to obtain products with desired functional properties. The module provides solid theoretical and practical foundations that are essential for future materials engineers, enabling them to effectively apply their skills in industry and in the development of innovative engineering solutions.
