Introduction
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.
Why choose this programme?
- The programme introduces students to the processes involved in scientific research and provides them with the knowledge and skills needed for a professional career in chemistry.
- Theoretical knowledge is applied to real chemical problems and a suitable foundation is provided for work in the chemistry of nanomaterials, or in a multi-disciplinary area involving chemistry and nanomaterials chemistry.
Program Outcome
Graduates of the programme will develop the following main abilities:
- To perform scientific research and solve problems connected with the synthesis, analysis and application of nanomaterials, and to work in interdisciplinary areas.
- To choose and apply appropriate instrumental methods for the investigation of conventional and nanomaterials, as well as to interpret and evaluate the results of an investigation
- To identify and predict the ways of finding a solution to a problem, to solve problems of an unfamiliar character, to summarise and critically evaluate scientific information and its reliability, and to understand the need to take responsibility for the decisions that are taken
- To develop critical and analytical thinking and information technology skills that are applicable in many contexts
Career Opportunities
- Graduates of the program can be employed in chemical laboratories, research institutions or commercial structures dealing with high-level technologies
- Graduates of the program can choose to embark on doctoral studies in Chemistry or Biochemistry
