Nanosystems Engineering concentrates on the top-down design and fabrication of nano- and microsystems for research and industry. Students train in nano- and microfabrication, simulation and device characterisation, using the Nanolab clean room at DTU. Topics include sensors, actuators, nanofluidics, nanophotonics, nano-electronics and nanomanipulation. It is a study line of DTU’s Engineering Physics master’s at the Lyngby Campus and follows a four-semester pattern in the suggested plans. The page does not state the language of instruction.
