Master Nanosciences et nanotechnologies, Parcours : Chemical nano-engineering (CNE)

Our program is aimed at methodologies applied to nano-engineering, application-oriented and specifically focused on chemical synthesis and characterization. It includes the methodology of bottom-up design of nano-systems using modeling and chemical synthesis at the nano-scale.

Chemistry for nano-engineering is an innovative field of science and technology, which is developing very fast. The 2016 Nobel Prize in Chemistry shows the importance of research in this area. It has shown that engineering of nano-machines is not anymore science-fiction ; it is just a beginning of a new engineering specialty, where nano-systems are numerically designed and chemically synthesized. These new technologies will create a large demand for specialists in this field.

Teaching shared by three universities : Aix-Marseille University (semester 1), Wroclaw University of Science and Technology (semester2) and University Roma Tor Vergata (semester 3).

Basic university courses in informatics, mathematics, physics and chemistry.

Basics in molecular biology, statistical thermodynamics and computer modeling.

This Master Course offers an original program in the highly innovative domain of nano-engineering. Skills will be acquired at the strongly interdisciplinary level needed to master emerging nano-technologies and to develop original concepts and applications aiming at novel engineering breakthroughs in many domains ; biomedical nanotechnologies, nanomaterials or applications for environment.

• Students will be able to collect and organize appropriate date required for nano-system design.
• Students will be able to apply principles of thermodynamics to determine basic properties of the designed/studied nano-system.
• Students will be able to use technological available information to plan possible ways of nano-systems synthesis.
• Students will be able to evaluate the need for interdisciplinary assistance for the development of nano-system.
• Students will be able to evaluate educational research critically and participate in the research community.
• Students will be able to propose and perform the system characterization using the top of art equipment in the nan-engineering domain.

The semester 4 is for the preparation of the Master Thesis, in one of the partner institutions.

Lectures and working on the problems, Summer school, project in innovative aspect of nanotechnology, Master thesis project, presentations and defense of the master project.

Only first semester in Marseille.
