SP characteristics

The study program provides advanced teoretical and practical knowledges in the area of surface science, physics of interfaces and thin film physics, areas supporting contemporary nanotechnology. It includes study of surface processess and structures at atomic scale using a number of various experimental techniques for surface imaging and analysis. The study covers also borderline disciplines related to surface chemistry (surface catalysis,electrochemistry, on-surface synthesis). The program prepares professionals with a broad foundation in mathematics and physics and with a deep knowledge in the area of surface science and physics of thin films.

Graduate profile for the public:
Graduates obtain deep education in physics of surfaces and thin films based on knowledge of physical properties of solid state surfaces and interfaces and of physical processes related. They use acquired skills to solve the current scientific and technological challenges. They independently solve complex research problems and develop new, more effective ways to investigate them. Graduates are prepared for using modern methods of surface analysis and have got practical experience with a number of top experimental techniques used in surface science. PhD theses are focused on problems of basic research in material science and nanophysics. Experimental approach is in close relation with theoretical study of problems. Graduates successfully find employment in pedadogical and scientific positions at domestic and foreign universities, scientific institutions and other workplaces focused on material research and nanotechnologies. Special knowledge on surface analysis makes them desirable for applied research in industry.
