| Field of Study: | Atomic/Molecular Physics
Physical Sciences, Other
|
| Description: | Study matter at a scale on the order of 10 to thousands of atoms. Examine nanoscience through the disciplines of physical/inorganic chemistry, biochemistry and electrical engineering to understand the physical, chemical, biochemical and electronic characteristics of matter in this size regime. Combining these areas of study will allow you to grasp nanoscience in photonic, electronic, biomedical, energy
and communication technologies. Focus on the use of materials in electronic devices, their scalability and the control of their properties. Courses in mathematics, physics and statistics will round out the program, and advanced courses in bionanoscience and nanoelectronics are available. A concentration in Nanotechnology is also available within the Chemistry program.
Your career: biomedical technology/diagnostics; micro (nano) electronics; research and development in aerospace technologies; research and development in green technologies; sensors and communications technology; solar cell technology |
