Learning outcomes of the course unit
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.
Prerequisites
Solid State Physics, Macromolecular Chemistry, Colloid Chemistry.
Co-requisites
Not applicable.
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Exercises are focused on practical topics presented in lectures. Teaching is suplemented by practical laboratory work.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
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).
