Responsible coordinator of the module PH1537 is Ian Sharp.

Content, Learning Outcome and Preconditions

Content

This seminar will provide students with the opportunity to give presentations on recent topics in the field of energy research. Special foci will be on emerging operando characterization techniques of energy materials and the basic understanding of photoelectrodes operating under energy conversion conditions.

Learning Outcome

After successful participation in the module, the student can:

  • Use and critically evaluate basic methods of literature retrieval,
  • Condense their knowledge from scientific papers into a presentation and obtain presentation skills,
  • Acquire additional knowledge about recent topics in the field of energy research and emerging operando characterization techniques.

Preconditions

No preconditions required.

Courses, Learning and Teaching Methods and Literature

Courses and Schedule

Learning and Teaching Methods

Active and passive participation in scientific presentations and the associated discussion.

Media

Power point presentations and open discussions.

Literature

To be determined individually.

Module Exam

Description of exams and course work

In the course of the seminar each student individually prepares a talk of about 45 minutes on a topic of current research and actively participates in the discussion about all the talks in the seminar. Hence participation in essentially all dates of the seminar is expected. Based on the individual talk the learning outcome is tested.

Aspects of evaluation are especially:

  • Illustrative and clear presentation of a topical research field within a scientific talk
  • Answering questions on the scientific content of the talk

Current exam dates

Currently TUMonline lists the following exam dates. In addition to the general information above please refer to the current information given during the course.
