Program description
Nanotechnology is an advanced and interdisciplinary field of science whose task is to design new materials, systems and methods based on nanostructures with well-defined and desired properties. Thanks to nanotechnology, we can solve the problems of everyday life, increasing the comfort of human life and meet many global challenges of the modern world, such as, for example, clean water supply, effective production and storage of energy based on renewable sources, effective diagnostics and therapy of cancer diseases. Therefore, we offer you master study program in nanotechnology, where with the international community, you can find the answer for modern-day problems. Best candidates may apply to one of our interdisciplinary double-degree programs run in collaboration with partner univsrsities from Europe.

Career opportunities
Upon successful completion of the program students are awarded the Master of Science in Engineering (magister inżynier) in Nanotechnology.
The program focuses on the design and analysis of the properties of innovative nanomaterials and functional materials. During your studies you will gain knowledge and skills in the field of: synthesis of nanomaterials, measurements and analysis of their structural, mechanical, electrical and magnetic properties using advanced experimental techniques and facilities (X-ray diffraction; optical, confocal, electron and scanning probe microscopy; X-ray, photoemission, UV-Vis, IR and impedance spectroscopy; nanoindentention; differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetry) and computer-aided design and modeling of materials by classical and quantum molecular dynamics simulations using computing resources of Academic Computer Centre in Gdansk (CI TASK).
Additionally, our alumni are equipeed with transversal skills; they are able to lead, communicate and work in teams. The best graduates will be given the opportunity to enter a PhD program.
