I will start with recalling the basics of Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFTs) and the classification theorem in 2-dimensional case. I will then give the definition of eTFT as a functor between particular bicategories, generalizing the case of ordinary TQFT. Lastly, I will informally discuss one of the classification theorems for 2-dimensional eTFTs.
