This Masters has previously been taught as a Doctoral programme which was awarded the Mención de Calidad (certificate of high quality) for the academic year 2003-4. Colloid and interface science forms a part of various disciplines, with its main historic connection being to physical chemistry, but it is also linked to the physics of condensed matter and most specifically complex fluids.

Recently, however, due to applications of different systems, colloids has developed into a distinct area, and is currently one of the most prolific areas of teaching and research within such apparently diverse disciplines as physical chemistry, biochemistry and materials engineering.

As an example, soaps, detergents, dyes and paints are all colloidal systems, however their particular structure and properties means that they are used not only in everyday life, but also in technological processes such as separations, the synthesis of nanoparticles and polymers, technology for hydrocarbon recovery, etc.

During the Masters the student will acquire a solid appreciation of the scientific fundamentals of colloidal systems, as well as the techniques of production, characterisation and manipulation of these systems, which will be reinforced by internal and external practices in R&D centres.


Contents

Qualifying the students for professional practice – creating technicians and professionals for laboratories and industry.

Qualifying the students for research – creating researchers.

Qualifying the students for an ever-changing technical/scientific world – creating thinkers and doers. The objective of this Masters is to create people who develop new work ideas, who are capable of assimilating and incorporating new technologies, and who, on identifying these new needs, prioritise respect for and protection of the environment, and support sustainable development.

The programme will produce technicians, technologists and specialists who value resilience and good industry practice, and are enterprising enough to create technological centres where the quality of staff is more important than the quantity.
