Fundamentals of structural crystallography and physical basis of diffraction and electron structure analysis for
crystalline, partially ordered and amorphous substances, with an emphasis on the relationship between structure
and properties. Focused on applications of structural analysis methods in biophysics, macromolecular physics,
chemical physics and crystallochemistry.

It is assumed that there will be a maximum of 2 correction dates for passing the exam. The exam is oral with written preparation. 3 questions are asked from the lectured material. Last update: Pospíšil Miroslav, doc. RNDr., Ph.D. (27.04.2023)

The exam consists of written preparation and an oral part. Written preparation precedes the oral part. The student receives three questions, each question is evaluated with a mark and the final mark is the average mark of the marks for each question. If one of the questions is not sufficiently answered, it means that the exam has not been passed. Failure to pass the exam means that three various questions will be asked again at the next deadline.
The requirements for the oral part of the exam correspond to the syllabus of the subject to the extent that was presented at the lecture.
It is probable that a significant part of exams or credits can take place in a distance form. It depends on the development of the current situation and you will be informed about any changes in time. Last update: Pospíšil Miroslav, doc. RNDr., Ph.D. (27.04.2023)
