Last Updated: 2026-06-01 11:30:45
Abstract
CAS AMaP participants are offered a MaP professor as a mentor together with whom they design their study plan along an individually-specified focus area in ‘Advanced Materials and Processes’. Building on the individual expertise, interests and needs of the participants, the customised CAS AMaP module consists of the elements (i) research project, ii) courses and lectures, (iii) knowledge transfer.
Objective
The CAS AMaP module is fully customisable, building on the expertise of technical specialist professionals and aims at: - training skills at the frontiers of the current state of research in Advanced Materials and Processes, - deepening technical know-how with state-of-the-art knowledge in the specified focus area, and - advancing practical competencies in the impart of expertise and knowledge transfer across disciplines and educational levels.
Content
Depending on individual interests and needs of the technical specialist professionals, the CAS AMaP module consists of the elements: I. conducting a research project in the mentor’s group, addressing fundamental, development or applied problems, considering theoretical and/or experimental aspects, II. individual schedule of courses and lectures with state-of-the-art knowledge, and III. sharing of know-how in, e.g. seminars and interactive formats, thereby enhancing bidirectional knowledge transfer.
