Upon completing the course, students will possess the following skills. They are able to
- explain and summarize key models used to describe the assembly of nanostructures on surfaces and their physical properties (k1/k2);
- describe and compare the mechanisms governing nanostructure formation at surfaces, identify their unique characteristics as well as the common underlying principles (k2);
- engage with current research topics in the field and discuss recent developments (k5);
- present and critically assess scientific publications, developing skills in synthesizing information and articulating insights (k5).

During the course, students will acquire knowledge about specific aspects of nanostructures on surfaces:
- brief introduction to surface science and nanoanalytics;
- fabrication and atomic manipulation of nanostructures on surfaces;
- growth, self-organization and self-assembly of nanostructures on surfaces;
- the unique characteristics of nanostructures on surfaces, such as their mechanical, electronic, optical, chemical and magnetic properties.
