Kuvaus

Master's Degree Programme in Nanoscience (chemistry) educates chemists specialising in structural and synthetic nanochemistry or computational chemistry and spectroscopy of nanoscale objects. Also combination of these two specialities is possible. Master's Degree Programme will offer excellent possibilities to continue studies as a doctoral student or to work in private sector or in research. Prerequisites for Master's Degree Programme in Nanoscience is a B.Sc. degree or equal studies in chemistry and additional studies in biology and/or physics.

The studies emphasise broad interdisciplinary knowledge on nanoscience and development as an expert and researcher. Nanoscience is a rapidly evolving field and teaching is very tightly connected with research. Laboratory work and/or computational methods are essential part of the studies.

Final project of the studies is highly topical and closely related to the research done in the research groups. The Master’s thesis can also be done in cooperation with companies or other research institutes.

The Master's Degree Programme in Nanoscience is an international Master's Degree Programme that consists of studies completed in English. In addition, the master's thesis must be completed in English.

Osaamistavoitteet

In addition to general learning aims for M.Sc. degree in chemistry the student graduating in Master's Degree Programme in Nanocience:

- has an interdisciplinary education and knows how to apply knowledge in solving interdisciplinary research problems
- is able to communicate and collaborate with scientists from other relevant fields of nanoscience
- understand properties of nano-objects in chemistry, biology and physics
- masters the concepts, phenomena and basics of nanoscience
- masters the physical and chemical properties, interactions and structural characteristics of nanomaterials
- masters the most important fabrication and synthetic methods of nanoscience
- knows the theoretical basis of analytical methods in nanoscience and is able to apply them in measuring and analysis of nano structures
- is able to plan and conduct research projects and present the results in written reports and oral presentations


Tutkintorakenne

    Vapaasti valittavat opinnot

    Valinnaisia opintoja siten, että tutkinnon laajuus on vähintään 120 op. Opinnot voivat olla soveltuvia valitun painotusalan tai nanotieteisiin liittyviä syventäviä kursseja ja laboratoriotöitä. Valinnaisiin opintoihin voi sisältyä myös muiden tiedekuntien (esimerkiksi IT-tiedekunnan tai Kauppakorkeakoulun) tai muiden matemaattis-luonnontieteellisen tiedekunnan oppiaineiden opintoja, tai kieliopintoja. Valinnaisiksi opinnoiksi käy myös kansainvälisen liikkuvuusjakson aikana suoritettuja opintoja. Työharjoittelupisteitä voi sisällyttää yhteensä enintään 10 op alemman korkeakoulututkinnon kanssa.
