course aims in Estonian
• Kujundada üliõpilastes süsteemne arusaam anorgaaniliste materjalide mitmekesisusest, olulisemate materjalide saamisest, toorainebaasist ning tekitada alusteadmised nendega seotud peamistest keemilis-tehnoloogilistest protsessidest.
• Anda üliõpilastele ettekujutus anorgaaniliste materjalidega seotud tehnoloogiliste protsesside keskkonnamõjust, tekkivatest tööstusjäätmetest, võimalustest nende vähendamiseks ning taaskasutamiseks.
• Laiendada üliõpilaste teadmisi anorgaaniliste materjalide tehnoloogia valdkonnas toimuva teadustöö suundadest ja probleemidest.

course aims in English
• Formation of systematic understanding about variety of inorganic materials, technologies for obtaining of most important materials, raw materials, and generation of basic knowledge about related chemical-technological processes.
• Generation of knowledge about fundamentals of chemical-technological processing of carbonate and silicate minerals, phosphates, and local specific raw materials (graptolite argillite, glauconite).
• Formation of idea of environmental impact of processes related to inorganic materials, the wastes formed and possibilities of their reduction and re-usage.

type of assessment in Estonian
Eelduseks on iseseisva referatiivse töö ja selle ettekande arvestus ning kontrolltööde sooritamine vähemalt miinimumhindele (50%).
Hinne kujuneb kontrolltööde ja referatiivse töö tulemuste koondina.
type of assessment in English
Premise consists of the independent report and its presentation and from the tests that have to be performed on the minimum level of 50%.
Grade is formed as the summary of test results and report grade.
independent study in Estonian
Iseseisva referatiivse töö eesmärgiks on minna sügavamale mõne valitud tehnoloogia osas, omandades arusaamise sellega seotud füüsikalis-keemilistest nähtustest, saadavate materjalide kasutuvaldkondadest, protsessiga seotud arvutustest ning kaasnevatest keskkonnaprobleemidest.
Iseseisva töö sisu ja maht:
• Referatiivne töö valitud teemal;
• Ettevalmistus kontrolltöödeks.
independent study in English
Aim of the independent report is to analyse more deeply selected technologies, obtaining knowledge about the physical-chemical principles of these processes, possibilities of usage of the materials produced, accompanied calculations and related environmental problems.
• Report on selected topic;
• Preparation for tests
