This course will advance your knowledge to the cutting edge of nanotechnology, nanoelectronics, high speed (terahertz) and quantum optoelectronic device research. It is particularly suited to you if you have an electronic engineering or physical science background and want to pursue a career in research.
This course is derived directly from the research of the School’s highly successfully world-class research Institute of Microwaves and Photonics (IMP). In recent years the research of the IMP has developed to include high frequency (terahertz) sources and systems, quantum optoelectronics (including infrared and terahertz lasers and photodetectors), molecular and bio-nanoelectronics. The internationally recognised research leaders in IMP developed this course to develop tomorrow's scientists and engineers who will drive forward future innovation in the electronics and communications industries.
This course will allow you to pursue a career in research either in a university environment through a PhD or through the research and development arm of a high-tech. electronics, communications or computing company.
