At the end of the course, the student will be able to:
- classify electrical materials from the point of view of their properties and usage,
- explain nature of physical phenomena that take place in the structure of electrical materials,
- describe physical phenomena that take place in the electrical materials mathematically,
- describe mutual relation between composition and structure of materials and resulting properties and possibilities of controlling of these properties,
- project optimal kinds of materials for production of electrical, electronic and microelectronic devices, as well as for applications in related technical and scientific fields.

Knowledge of electrical materials on the level of the bachelor's course Materials and technical documentation.
