Goals and competencies

The subject of TERMODINAMICS is in accordance with the provisions of the STCW Convention. Within the course student develops a critical and logical assessment of heat and work phenomena and prepares mathematical evaluation of practical problems and the application of the laws of thermodynamics in other professional subjects.

Special features: Implementation of learning content in accordance with the STCW Convention A-III/1, A-III/2, A-III/3 and IMO model course 7.04 and 7.02
