| |||
Learning/ qualification targets | Students are supposed to get to know the most important geophysical attributes of the non-solid parts of the earth and universe. They are supposed to be familiarized with fundamental theoretic/mathematical tools that are necessary to describe geophysical relevant fluids. The internship is supposed to school students in dealing with computers. Basic functions of a computer as well as special numerical and data evaluation oriented methods are learned that play an essential role in the description of neutral and ionized fluids. In this internship qualifications are schooled that are essential for scientific as well as the non-scientific working life. | |||
Prerequisites for attending | Passed modules:
| |||
Frequency of the offer | Every 2nd summer semester. | |||
Imparted interdisciplinary competencies and soft skills | --- | |||
Applicability in other courses of studies | This module is suitable as an electoral module of the bachelor course "Physics". The examination board can allow exceptions of the prerequisites for attending for subsidiary students. | |||
