About this program
Chemistry of Nanomaterials (MA)
Nanomaterials are an increasingly important product of nanotechnologies. They are coming into use in healthcare, electronics, cosmetics and other areas. Materials with structure at the nanoscale often have unique optical, electronic, or mechanical properties. Physical and chemical properties of nanomaterials often differ from those of bulk materials, so graduates will gain in-depth knowledge on nanomaterials.
