Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to provide students with hands-on experience in testing of energetic material.
Student will gain practical experience in handling of explosives and conducting simple experiments for determination of some of the properties specific for energetic materials. The successful competition of this course is a requested presumption for course leading to a blasters license.

Assessment methods and criteria
|
Work-related product analysis
compulsory: 100% attendance in the labs + handing in all reports + passing the final exam (min. 50%) the final grade is combination of the following: attitude to work (10%), reports (50%), final exam (40%) Student who will endanger life of himself/herself or others by inappropriate behavior in the lab will not be allowed to finish the course and hence will not obtain the degree at the Institute of Energetic Materials.
