Courses for Nanotechnology
The two-year master's programme in Nanotechnology consists of three terms of courses and one final term dedicated to the master's degree project. Each term consist of approximately 30 ECTS credits. Depending on which track you choose, you will study different courses. The courses presented on this page apply to studies starting in autumn 2027.
Year 1
Two of the courses SK2758, IL2240 and IL2246 must be chosen. These are prerequisites for mandatory as well as elective courses within the programme, and students who have not taken corresponding courses in their undergraduate education must make the selection based on this.
Other courses than the listed conditionally elective courses can also be chosen after consultation with the programme director.
