<p>You can find a link to the Open University Admissions service and application instructions on the <a href="https://www.tuni.fi/en/study-with-us/open-higher-education-studies/open-university/applying-open-university">Applying to Open University studies</a> page.</p>

<p>Some of the studies require prior studies. For example, studying intermediate studies may require some completed basic studies. These are described on the Information about studies tab of the study unit under prior requirements.</p>

<p>When you have been admitted to the studies, you must enrol separately via the Sisu information system for the implementation of the unit of study and, for example if set, for a practise group of your choice. You will receive instructions on how to do this by e-mail after you have confirmed your acceptance of the study place by paying the required fee.</p>

The target of the course is to make participants able to computationally estimate stress-states and damage in composite materials under thermo-mechanical loads and select constituent configurations for design of appropriate composite components. In addition, to target is to make participants know the most important material components as well as manufacturing and numerical modelling methods used in the field of fibrous polymer composites. The course also offers supplementary skills to account for composite-specific aspects of joining and hybrid materials in the simulation of material behaviour.

<h2>Prerequisites</h2>The students are required to have basic knowledge of mechanics of materials before entering the course. In detail, fundamentals of elasticity, the classical beam bending theory, and marix aglebra are necessary as prerequisites.
