Nanoscience (TR063)
What is Nanoscience and Advanced Materials?
Technological innovation progresses hand-in-hand with the development of new materials. Modern materials can be tailor-made for specific applications, and include superconductors, polymers and materials for use in lasers and optoelectronics. Advanced materials can be found in applications ranging from computers and electronics to biomedical devices and aeroplanes.
This degree programme will equip students to work across a diverse range of industries that employ nanotechnology. In the first two years students take 20 credits in each of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics including some specialised classes. In the third and fourth years the course includes modules in nanoscience and advanced materials. Final year students carry out a three month research project, in an industrial or research laboratory, often outside Ireland.
