Advanced Materials and Nanotechnology
Understanding the physics and chemistry of matter and processes at the nanoscale is essential to all scientific disciplines. Advanced Materials and Nanotechnology are both interdisciplinary research fields with opportunities to collaborate across diverse research areas and to share knowledge, tools, and techniques. The International Interdisciplinary Master's Program in Advanced Materials and Nanotechnology is carefully tailored to provide avenues to explore the rapidly expanding scientific horizons in these research areas where great strides are expected in the coming decades. The core courses of this program lay a solid foundation in this research area. The student can subsequently leverage upon the large basket of electives and choices of pursuing final year project across participating Departments.
