1.1.2 Required Background Knowledge

Mathematics
Not much. Familiarity with with basic undergraduate math will suffice.
General Physics and Chemistry
Familiarity with basic thermodynamics, basic solid state physics and general chemistry is sufficient
Materials Science
You should know about basic crystallography and thermodynamics. The idea is that you emerge from this course really understanding structural aspects of defects in some detail. Since experience teaches that abstract subjects are only understood after the second hearing, you should have heard a little bit about point defects, dislocations, stacking faults, etc. before.
