2   will be able to know K3 surfaces and their properties
3   will be able to know Enriques and Castelnuovo s classification of algebraic surfaces in chracteristic zero
4   will be able to know Bombieri-Mumford s classification of algebraic surfaces in characteristic p
5   will be able to classify the surfaces with respect to their Kodaira dimension
