Location of Graz University of Technology (TU Graz)
The high innovation potential of nanotechnology in the fields of information and communication technologies, medicine, new and resources-saving materials and multifunctional components have made it a key technology of the 21st century. Located as a connecting link between the natural and engineering sciences, nanophysics forms the basis for the nanosciences.
The four-semester inter-university master´s programme Nanophysics combines the theoretical concepts of a fully-fledged physics master´s programme with an in-depth training in the nanosciences field of the future. A prerequisite for admission is a bachelor´s degree in a related subject, such as Physics or Technical Physics (6 semesters).
Working as a Nanophysicist
Graduates of nanophysics can look forward to complex tasks in industry, research and in state-run establishments. They frequently work as physicists in the nanosciences and nanotechnology. Interesting openings are also to be found in electrical engineering and IT, physical and chemical process engineering, and pharmaceutical technology.
Contents
The master´s programme in Nanophysics consists of:
* Two overlapping compulsory modules for the experimental and theoretical foundations of nanophysics,
* In-depth treatments in at least two of the following optional subject modules: Atomic and nano optics, nano analysis, nanoelectronics, nanomaterials, surface nanotechnology, theory and modelling,
* Free optional subjects from transdisciplinary fields.
The programme is completed with a scientific master´s thesis. The master´s degree programme comprises a total of 120 ECTS credits. Graduates are awarded the degree of Master of Science (MSc).
