"Studying Chemistry of Nanomaterials programme gave me the theoretical and practical knowledge of the chemical, physical and engineering laws and processes taking place not only in our eye visible, but the nano level. During the studies, knowledge of nanostructures, surface, structure, methods of forming nanostructures and their applications, allows to look at the world with different eyes. Particularly important practical skills that I received during the laboratory work, the latter not only provides opportunities to be competitive in the labor market, but also to creatively solve problems in everyday life, both at work, analytical thinking, self-confidence."
