    The goalStudents acquire basic theoretical knowledge on the colloid systems, the importance of particles of colloid size and on their properties.
    The outcomeAfter the students fulfilled all the requirements and passed the exam, they are capable to understand the physico-chemical fundamental principles of colloidal behavior and to apply the acquired knowledge to practical problems in their future work.
