The assessment of a student is made upon his performance in practice and quality of a discussion on topics selected at the colloquium (lecture notes allowed at preparation).

The emphases will be put to explanation of basic relations between structure, properties and application of nanostructured materials. Students will be also informed about modelling of nanostructures and their synthesis and analysis.

The course facilitates a choice of a diploma project by a student. Student also gains knowledge in the field of advanced nanostructured materials, which play important role in the modern society.
