Through the study of modern nano-scale physics you will learn, for example, to develop and manipulate nano-structured materials, to model the behaviour of complex, biological systems or to develop methods of optical information transfer and data storage.
There are four fields of study:
-
Atomic-scale Physics, where you study the "bottom-up" design of materials based on quantum physics.
-
Nanosystems Engineering, which involves working with the "top-down" design process and fabrication of nanosystems for the industry.
- On the Optics and Photonics line you can study the use of photons for storage, data transfer and biomedical applications.
-
Biophysics and Complex Systems deals with simulating biological functions from molecules over cells to complete organisms.
Furthermore, there is the study line Functional Nanostructures. This study line combines the nanotechnological contents of the four fields of study.
In the final 6-12 months you will be writing your MSc thesis. The thesis is a scientific research project, often carried out in collaboration with one of university's industrial partners.
Teaching varies between lectures and classroom instruction. In addition, there is often project work together with other students. Students are encouraged to participate in class discussions.

If you choose to complete the master's degree programme, you will graduate with the academic title of Master of Science in Engineering (MSc).
