Nanotechnology

Overview

During the Bachelor of Arts in Nanotechnology at University of Lodz studies our students have an unique opportunity to gain the nanoscale-level understanding of the phenomena which pave the way to the development of new electronic devices.

Moreover, they expand their knowledge of new functional materials dedicated for:

• nanoelectronics
• electrotechnics
• medicine.

Nanotechnology is a 3 years-long programme with two terms per study year, taught entirely in English. During the first year the students take courses which allow them to understand and describe the world on a nanometer scale. Those include courses on the basis physics and chemistry. The programme introduces the concepts and crucial terminology used in nanoscience and nanotechnology. In addition, the students gain knowledge in such fundamental fields as mathematics and statistics. During the second year the students master their understanding of the rules governing the nanoworld. The courses cover quantum physics, physical chemistry of surfaces and crystallography. They also develop their experimental skills related to construction and characterization of nanostructures. During the last year of the studies the programme focuses on the main aspects of application of nanomaterials in the real industrial environment. The courses expand the knowledge about nanostructured devices based on graphene, nanotubes, nanoparticles, hybrid structures and wide range of molecules. Students participate in lectures, tutorials, laboratories and projects. All the courses are accompanied with practical classes in modern laboratories well equipped with state-of-the-art scientific instruments.
