Plastics technology: Courses
All information and documents will be published via Moodle this semester. The following overview shows - depending on the degree program and focus - the courses that can be taken with reference to plastics technology. Accordingly, all courses offered can be taken in the mechanical engineering degree program with a focus on "Materials and Design".
