Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
Successful learning of the following courses: “Molecular Physics and Thermodynamics”, “Electrics and Magnetism”, “Solid State Physics”, “Physics of nanocomposites” “Mechanical properties of the solid body”
Course content
During the course "Nanostructured Ceramic Materials" students expand their knowledge in physics of condensed matter. The focus is on the peculiarities of nanoceramic synthesis and on the influence of nanoparticles on properties of the materials. The purpose of the discipline is to acquaint the student with the peculiarities of physical, chemical and mechanical characteristics, synthesis methods, investigation and application of ceramic nanomaterials. Fundamental laws and concepts learned during the study of this discipline are widely used in physics, particularly in condensed matter physics and are necessary for a free review of scientific literature and further training for "Master" qualification. Teaching methods: lectures. Assessment methods: mid-semester tests, final test.

Assessment methods and criteria
Semester assessment: (max / min) 1. Modular test 1 on topics 1-7: PH 1.1 - 20 points / 12 points 2. Surveys during lectures: PH 1.1, - 10 points / 6 points 3. Modular test 2 on topics 8-14: PH 2.1 - 20 points / 12 points 4. Surveys during lectures: PH 2.1 - 10 points / 6 points A student is not allowed to take the exam if he / she scored less than 36 points during the semester. The grade for the exam cannot be less than 24 points for it to be an overall positive grade for the course.
