The PhD in Nanotechnology is designed to stimulate the value chain, using the foundation of nanoscience to generate groundbreaking scientific knowledge that encourages the development of innovative nanotechnology-based products and/or services, and also identifies entrepreneurial opportunities with nanotechnological bases.
Graduates from the Ph.D. in Nanotechnology are scientists who create knowledge to establish novel and innovative technologies that are relevant for the materials and manufacturing sectors, and understand basic phenomena within the field of Nano sciences. They work as leaders or as collaborators within national and international research groups, on areas such as Nano materials, Nano sensors and Nano photonics, among others.
The findings of their discoveries are important outcomes which should be submitted for peer-reviewed and academic publication, patents or conference proceedings. This knowledge transference as well as all of their professional activities follows legal, ethical and official norms.
