Bachelor of Science - Nanoscience - Nanoscale Physics

Program Description

The comprehensive major in nanoscience is the study of structures in nanometer size which is smaller than cells but larger than most molecules. At Northwest, this interdisciplinary major focuses on providing practical laboratory experiences, isolating DNA, and synthesizing nanoparticles to construct solar cells.

Nanoscale physics focuses on the interaction of light and electromagnetic radiation at a nano-level, the change in properties from the large scale to the nanoscale, and practical experience in designing and looking at materials at a nano level.
