Course Objective

The importance of macromoleculer synthesis and technology has increased in recent years. This demand of macromolecular science technology creates to learn the true meaning. In this lecture, macromolecular science, engineering and technology covering the whole of the methods used in the field will be submitted to the student. This lecture offers students methods for synthesis of macromolecules used in the past to the present, is intended to provide preliminary information on applications and usage areas. In addition to the academic studies on this subject such as macromolecular science, materials science, and also what to expect with regard to the contribution of a concentrated area of engineering science and technology is intended to inform. Comparison of the application section of the course work on macromolecular chemistry and related publications to be examined, the results discussed in these publications and will be given assignments.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   To be able to play an active role in the production, research and development sections of chemistry- related areas both in public and private sectors.
2   to gain the ability to make an interaction on national and international levels in order to foster chemistry education.
3   to have the ability to use modern technologies for solving problems in chemistry.
4   To have the ability to work in production related areas of chemistry.
5   To have the ability to generate solutions and to think critically and analytically.
