1 Nanoscience Degree Programs in Mexico

The Master of Science in Nanoscience Program is an inter-institutional program, the result of a collaboration between CICESE and UNAM. It is a flexible and dynamic plan that is related to the tutors' research lines and is adapted to the academic background and interests of the students. This scheme allows the student to take courses from other postgraduate courses when they are included in their personal study plan and are approved by the Council for the Graduate Program in Nanosciences (CPP). The master's program consists of a minimum of 54 credits in courses and the development of a research project that must be reported in a thesis and defended before a committee. Of the total credits of the study plan, 12 correspond to compulsory courses, 42 credits (as a minimum) in elective courses divided into basic courses (24 credits minimum) and advanced courses (18 credits minimum). The estimated study time is 6 semesters. During the first three semesters, the student must complete 54 credits in courses, according to the study plan. Some courses have prerequisites, so it is important that the student and their academic advisor plan their curriculum taking these aspects into consideration.
