Kompetenzziele | After successful completion of the module students should be able to: - identify their competence and incompetence with respect to the study of renewable energies - describe basic knowledge from a wide field of disciplines as required for renewable energies - perform laboratory measurements in a university environment according to scientific standards - analyse and interpret measurement results using relevant and widely used software tools - work and communicate their results with international and interdisciplinary partners - critically discuss basic principles of current mainstream economics - distinguish between the classical, neo-classical and selected heterodox economics and relate those approaches to the historic economic development |
Modulinhalte | The module is designed to give students a solid foundation to successfully start the MSc programme. The content from the field of Physics, Mathematics as well as Electrical and Mechanical Engineering aims to provide a homogenous foundation for the study of renewable energies via lectures and laboratory experiments. With an introduction into Socio-economics students will learn about the principles of mainstream economics, the peculiarities of energy markets and will get insight into some selected heterodox economic perspectives.
