    The goalAcquiring knowledge about the structure, properties, preparation nad application of porous materials.
    The outcomeThe student has acquired knowlwdge about materials for special applications and about the methods for their investigation. On the basis of the acquired knowledge the student is able to decide independently which kind of the porous material is to be used in some technological process and to suggest the manner in which the material can be modified in order to suit a particular application.
