Program Description
The Bachelor of Science - Nanoscience program provides undergraduate students with a unique opportunity to study the chemical and physical behaviour of materials at the nanoscale. Specialized laboratory courses have been developed to give our undergraduate students a unique hands-on laboratory experience where students learn to prepare a variety of nanomaterials and measure their properties using state of the art imaging and spectroscopic instruments. The Nanoscience courses are taught by members of the Physics and Chemistry departments, providing students with a multidisciplinary education that prepares them for a variety of career options.
Sample Careers:
- Nanolithography process designer
- Nanoparticle toxicologist
- Cancer nanotechnologist
A principal aim of the Co-op program in Nanoscience is to facilitate the transition of students from academic studies to a professional career by enhancing the integration of theory and practice.
