Industry Program in Nanotechnology

Program Overview

The course comprises of four assessed modules, and an individual project.The modules include online tutorials and assessments, and are assessed through project work and assignments. These provide the 'tools' required for individual projects. For participants from nanotechnology related field, a self work-based project may replace the individual assigned project.

The individual thesis project provides you with the opportunity to develop and demonstrate independent research ability, working within agreed objectives, and deadlines.

The innovative Industry program in nanotechnology aims to give participants a thorough grounding in the skills necessary for a technically-based career in the new high-tech industries.

The course covers technologies used to design, realise and analyse micro and nano-scale devices, materials and systems, coupled with general and technology management. This, supported by project work, ensures graduates emerge trained in a wide range of technical and management skills, and have a sharp appreciation of the relevance of the subject to industrial needs.

Course Outcome

Successful students will secure positions in the newly developing nanosystems and nanotechnology-based industries as well as more traditional industries, such as microelectronics and precision engineering, requiring skills related to those taught. Graduates are able to pursue careers in a diverse range of industries including automotive, aerospace, cosmetics and pharmaceutical.
