Do you want to solve technological challenges?
How can atoms and molecules be assembled into new types of materials? How can we build new components for diagnostics and drug delivery, clean energy technology, and quantum sensors? Nanotechnology is about studying and manipulating materials at the atomic level.
This programme is for those who enjoy interdisciplinary work; at the nanoscale, the traditional boundaries between physics, chemistry, and biology break down. A nanotechnologist combines knowledge from all these fields to develop and create technological solutions for society.
This program is taught in Norwegian. Please refer to the norwegian program page for more information.
What will you learn?
What will you learn?
The Nanotechnology programme provides you with the knowledge needed to solve future challenges in both research and the development of new technology. From the very first semester, you work in teams, combining interdisciplinary knowledge with technology development.
What can you become?
What can you become?
With a Master of Science in Engineering, you will have the opportunity to work across a wide range of industries. You become a problem solver with strong technological expertise – highly sought after in fields ranging from energy and medicine to technology development.
You gain an education that provides security, competitive salaries, and many career opportunities, both in Norway and internationally. Nanotechnology students also have excellent opportunities to pursue research careers. There are already many nanotechnologists working at various research institutes across Norway, in both the public and private sectors.
Study environment
Study environment
The programme is located at the historic Gløshaugen campus, close to Trondheim city centre, with immediate access to all facilities. As nanotechnology is an interdisciplinary field of study, you will take courses at several departments and meet many students outside your own programme. This provides an excellent opportunity for networking that you will benefit from both during your studies and later in your professional career.
As a nanotechnology student, you will be part of a class of approximately 35 students. This creates a unique environment where you can get to know your fellow students well, both within your own year group and across different cohorts.
Programme structure
Programme structure
The programme is based on a multidisciplinary approach which, together with specialized nanotechnology courses, forms a coherent thread throughout the entire programme. From the first semester, you will encounter new ideas and opportunities that arise from the use of nanomaterials and nanocomponents — a challenge that will provide both inspiration and motivation throughout your studies.
In your fourth year, you choose a field of specialization.
