Nanoscience

How can we fabricate cheaper and more efficient batteries and solar cells? Is it possible to create computers that function like the human brain? Can we control quantum effects on the nanoscale for practical applications? And how can we design affordable sensors to detect viruses at extremely low concentrations or take non-destructive X-ray images? If you're driven by these types of questions, the Master's in Nanoscience at the University of Groningen could be the right choice for you. What to expect from the Master's programme Nanoscience✔ Study in a top-ranked, selective programme with strong links to cutting-edge research. ✔ Explore the intersection of physics, chemistry, materials science, and biochemistry. ✔ Gain hands-on lab experience and participate in real-world research projects. ✔ Join an international, diverse, and highly motivated student cohort with excellent career prospects. In this interdisciplinary MSc programme, you'll dive into the world of nanotechnology and advanced materials research. You'll work closely with leading scientists from the Zernike Institute for Advanced Materials, a top research centre recognised for excellence. The small-scale, selective set-up ensures intensive collaboration, direct supervision, and plenty of opportunities for hands-on research. With a curriculum combining scientific breadth and depth, you'll be fully prepared for

Founded in 1614, the University of Groningen is the second oldest university in the Netherlands with over 33,000 students. Known for its vibrant student city atmosphere (1 in 4 residents is a student), excellent research output, and 4 Nobel Prize laureates including Ben Feringa (Chemistry 2016).
