4 Nanotechnology Degree Programs in Spain

Nanoscience and nanotechnology are disciplines at the cutting-edge of scientific knowledge. They combine aspects of basic and applied sciences applied to specific fields, such as biotechnology, medicine, chemistry, pharmaceutical sciences, physics, materials engineering, sciences and electronic engineering. Nanoscience and nanotechnology are therefore key areas of interdisciplinary research and development, in which activity is increasing across the globe.

The master in Nanoscience and Molecular Nanotechnology is an interuniversity Master participated by 7 Spanish Universities. It addresses aspects that are at the intersection of one of the most novel sciences today, the Nanoscience, with traditional scientific aspects of the Molecular Science such as Molecular Electronics, Molecular Magnetism, Supramolecular Chemistry, Surface Physics, or Science of Molecular Materials. The Master is aimed at training students in the field of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology so that they can develop a professional activity in this field, or a research activity leading to a Doctoral Thesis.

The Interuniversity Master's Degree in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology responds to the need to integrate into a body of knowledge the advances that are taking place in the field of nanoscience and the technological applications of nanosystems.

The Master’s degree in Synthetic and Industrial Chemistry is an inter-university Master’s program run by the University of Valladolid, the Public University of Navarre, and the University of the Basque Country (coordinating university). It aims to train specialists in Chemical Synthesis for both the professional/business and the research/academic worlds, enabling them to become experts in synthetic methodology, the preparation of raw materials and/or fine chemicals, structural determination and separation and purification techniques. This Master’s degree allows students to pursue a PhD on completion. Among the main topics of social interest that contribute to guiding research lines in chemistry, we can mention energy, health, environment, and new materials (including nanotechnology) for application in catalysis, electronics, etc. A whole world dependent on new developments in chemical synthesis: new drugs (analgesics, antibiotics, anti-inflammatories, diabetes treatments, blood pressure, cancer), new adhesives, new semiconductor materials, new luminescent products for solar cells, new polymers, LEDs, OLEDs, nanoparticles, enantioselectivity… words that portray the world around us, and that make up the world of synthesis. Learn to build molecules and materials with the required chemical, medical or physical functionality, study their structures and properties, and do so with powerful, selective, efficient, and clean procedures. That is the objective of this master's degree oriented towards Synthetic and Industrial Chemistry and that of the doctorates studies.
