Nanomaterials and Nanophysics is a specialisation within the Master of Science in Engineering in Physics and Technology at Aalborg University, studied on the Aalborg campus. The two-year programme is taught in English, begins in September and uses AAU’s problem-based group project work, with real cases often set together with companies or research groups. The specialisation prepares students to work on increasing the durability and functionality of materials, improving existing products and developing new innovative products, for example using nanotechnology. It combines theoretical modelling with experimental analysis of material properties at small scales.

| Scope of the program | Graduates can work on making materials more durable and functional and on developing new products using nanotechnology. The parent programme points to sectors such as energy, electronics, telecommunications, healthcare technology and aeronautics, with roles in technology development and analysis, consulting, data processing and research in the private or public sector. Skills in experimental methods, modelling and cross-disciplinary teamwork support these roles. Many graduates of the wider programme stay at the university for a PhD, which suits the research character of nanophysics. AAU Career helps with CVs, job search and Danish working culture. |
