Schwerpunkte: Allgemeine u. Spezielle Mineralogie, Kristallographieu. Struktur der Materie (Schwerpunkt Baustoffe); Physikalische u.chemische Eigenschaften anorganischer Materialien; MineralogischmaterialanalytischeUntersuchungsverfahrenThe students know the basics for understanding the connections between material properties, chemistry of the material and the structure of matter. They have the knowledge of general and special mineralogy as well as crystallography. The students know the mineralogical-analytical methods necessary for material characterization and can use them in a targeted and problem-oriented way.Focal points: General and special mineralogy, crystallography and structure of matter (focus on building materials); physical and chemical properties of inorganic materials; mineralogical-material-analytical methods with practical laboratory components
