    The goalThe study of the general principles and modern technologies of electrochemical plating of metallic and alloy coatings in order to provide the basis for understanding mechanisms of metallic coatings deposition, as well as their properties. ; Through the seminar – calculations in electroplating and experimental work student should be trained to creatively approach and resolve specific problems in electroplating, passing through all the stages in the process of electrodeposition of metal coatings. ;
    The outcomeStudent has acquired basic theoretical knowledge of the different methods used in metal coatings, coating types, depending on the application, and their properties. In this course, the student is designing technological project- the calculations in a particular galvanic process. After successful completion of the course the student has acquired the necessary knowledge to: (i) independently follow the literature, (ii) independently analyze the specific problem of electrochemical deposition of metal coatings, devise a plan for the technological process of deposition, master the application of certain techniques and modes of deposition, (iii) acquire communication skills to clearly formulate and present tasks, possible solutions and results. ;
