Study

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. The 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 work in Czech or foreign scientific institutions focused on materials research and nanotechnologies. Special knowledge on surface analysis makes them desirable for applied research in industry.
