MSc Nanomaterials

This exciting one-year MSc offers research-focused teaching and training for graduates seeking to build a career in the cutting-edge, dynamic field of nano and functional materials. This MSc course provides an in-depth understanding of the principles governing the properties and synthesis of nano and functional materials, their characterisation, and their assembly into advanced functional devices, from photovoltaics to supercapacitors. The master's covers a wide range of themes, from advanced composites to graphene and functional nanomaterials. You will also gain hands-on experience through advanced research training. This course will prepare you to become an academic or industrial scientist with unique skills and expertise in nano and functional materials and related technologies.

You will need at least a UK 2.2 Honours degree or overseas equivalent in Materials Science, Chemistry, Physics, Nanoscience or Nanotechnology. Alternatively, a UK 2.1 Honours degree or equivalent is required in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Electrical/Electronic Engineering or Biochemical Engineering. Other backgrounds may also be considered.
