Description

Aims:

To provide a sound overview over fundamental principles and practical examples of molecular engineering, including molecular design, molecular assembly and system functionality.

Learning Outcomes:

Upon completion of this module, the students should:

  • understand key molecular design features in macromolecules;
  • apply principles of materials assembly to formation processes in industry;
  • relate device function to molecular architecture;
  • connect to current research topics in molecular engineering (connected curriculum) through practical examples in class, project-based research and interactions with researchers

Synopsis:

  • Molecular design – oligomers, polymers and biomolecules
  • Molecular assembly – intermolecular forces, surfaces and interfaces, molecular self-assembly and self-organisation, molecular machines
  • System Functionality – practical examples of molecular engineering in biomedical, environmental and energy applications
