Term Test: We are planning a mid-term exam (after the end of 6th lesson) and term-end exam (after the end of the 15th lesson). Report: We are planning to give reports in several times (about 20 hours to create).Textbooks, reference books and also lecture’s note (blackboard-intensive lecture) should be reviewed.

Text/Reference
Books,etc. (1)　M. Ito et al., "Fundamentals of Materials Science" (Corona Publishing ) (From 1st to 6th lessons).
(2)  J. Watanabe edition, "Bunshi Kara  Zairoyu Made Don Don Tsunagararu Koubunshi" (Maruzen Publishing) (From 8th  to 15th lessons)
If necessary, we will distribute materials.  Textbooks may want to be purchased in the co-op shop.

Suggestions on
Preparation and
Review Materials science is a comprehensive science, not an academic covering with a single text. For this reason, we mainly use text (1) and other related text in the 1st to 7th lectures, and mainly text (2) in the 8th to 16th lectures. Use them for review preparation. Please note that the progress of the lesson does not follow the order of the text in part. In the review, it is necessary to deepen understanding by examining the shortage of lectures at the library, etc. For the contents related to the lecture, you should study the basics with the physical chemistry textbooks (Atokins etc). You will not get enough information by just searching on the Web site. Furthermore, efforts to deepen exercises and challenging reports imposed at the lecture deepen your understanding are necessary. These assignments should be submitted on the indicated day.

Requirements As a rule, all of the lesson should be attended. If attendances are less than 2/3 in each lecture, it is not possible to take the exams.

Grading Method Standards of performance are evaluated by the mid-term exam, the term-end exam, and the reports.
Mid-term exam (40%), term-end exam (40%), and the reports of submitted-answer situation (20%), are evaluated by 100 points and it passes when more than 60 points.

Practical Experience Experienced

Summary of Practical Experience and Class Contents based on it Analysis of polymer processing.

Message We are set office hours, and these should be actively used.
We will announce time of office hours in the class.

Please fill in the class improvement questionnaire which is carried out on all classes.
Instructors will reflect on your feedback and utilize the information for improving their teaching.
