    The goal Introducing students to fabrication, physics of operation, and properties of nanoelectronic devices. Students will gain knowledge in the field of transport in nanostructures and nanodevices, physics of graphene and other twodimensional materials, carbon nanotubes, and nanodevices based on these materials.
    The outcome Students should learn methods of electronic structure and electron transport theories. They should also develop practical skills to model nanostructures, graphene and other two-dimensional materials, nanotubes, and nanoelectronic devices.
