The aim of this course is to reinforce the theoretical and experimental knowledge that students have gained during their undergraduate education in Materials Science and Nanotechnology Engineering and to carry out project studies on related subjects. The project topic should be chosen jointly with the project advisor and student, and the work on the topic should be prepared as a graduation thesis and an oral presentation.

Course Content:

Within the scope of this course, students will learn how to make literature searches, experiments or theoretical studies regarding their final projects. Students will prepare and realize a project, share their work with their supervisor, and finally evaluate and consulate the results they have achieved. In light of the results of their experimental or theoretical studies, students will write an interim and final report and make a presentation.

Course Methodology:

1: Lecture, 2: Question-Answer, 3: Discussion, 9: Simulation, 12: Case Study

Course Evaluation Methods:

A: Written exam, B: Multiple-choice exam C: Take-home quiz, D: Experiment report, E: Homework, F: Project, G: Presentation by student, H: …
