You strive to qualify yourself for your career in a highly future-oriented field, and you seek scientific work with innovative technology – in this case, the Master's study program Micro- and Nanotechnology is a perfect choice.

Nanosciences and Nanotechnology (NN) aim to understand, control and manipulate the matter at a nano-scale (typically from 1 to 100 nm) where unique physicochemical and biological phenomena take place, which can be explored in new applications. The DP in NN aims to train highly qualified specialists able to master concepts across conventional areas of knowledge and to design future developments in NN, while promoting/undertaking productive and transformative activities, and also contributing to environmental sustainability and social progress. The DP in NN intends to:

The multidisciplinary doctorate degree in microsystems engineering builds on the fundamentals of traditional engineering and science combined with curriculum and research activities addressing the numerous technical challenges of micro- and nano-systems.

From batteries to painkillers, chemistry is essential to our modern lives. The industrial applications of chemistry directly affect us daily – what we eat, what we wear, our transport, the technology we use, how we treat illnesses and how we get electricity – to name just a few.

The Master of Physics, with a strong focus on Nanophysics, is unique for its focus on the fundamental physics of the exciting phenomena in nanosystems. The programme focuses on modern theoretical models and computational techniques, electron microscopy and spectroscopy for the characterisation of nanostructures and practical computational and experimental experience.

The objectives of this master’s degree are to educate future managers, engineers, and researchers in the field of nanotechnology and give them the tools to handle recent advances in nanotechnology and biology. Graduates will be ready to undertake international projects in which these different fields overlap. École Centrale de Lyon is the leading institution of this Université de Lyon master’s program, which is accredited jointly with INSA Lyon and Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1.

This English-taught Master's degree in Science and Technology of Bio and Nanomaterials master’s degree at Ca' Foscari University of Venice concentrates on the development, engineering, and application of nanomaterials and bio-nanomaterials within science and technology.

The combined talents and expertise of chemists, physicists, and material scientists are essential to successfully address the scientific and technological challenges of today’s society. Nanomaterials have unique properties that can be tailored by controlling the size, shape and surface of nanoparticles and nanoporous materials. The two-year Master’s programme Nanomaterials Science offers you a scientifically diverse learning environment where you will acquire both the knowledge and the skills to successfully tackle complex multidisciplinary problems and contribute to the technologies of the future.

This MSc course is addressed to students holding the first cycle in Chemistry or related areas, and features a sound chemistry education at the second cycle level, with continuity, scientific and pedagogic consistency and with a curriculum structure flexible to be adapted to the evolution of the market needs. The objectives of this Master are:

The Ph.D. in Chemistry and Nanoscale Science at UNC Charlotte is an interdisciplinary program that addresses the development, manipulation, and use of materials and devices on the scale of roughly 1-100 nanometers in length, and the study of phenomena that occur on this size scale. The program prepares students to become scholarly, practicing scientists who possess the critical thinking, methodological, and communication skills required to advance and disseminate knowledge of chemistry and applied nanoscale science.

Nanomaterials are an increasingly important product of nanotechnologies. They are coming into use in the fields of healthcare, electronics, cosmetics, and other areas. Materials with a structure at the nanoscale often have unique optical, electronic, or mechanical properties. Moreover, the physical and chemical properties of nanomaterials often differ from those of bulk materials, so our graduates will gain in-depth knowledge of nanomaterials.

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.
