Overview
Ecole Centrale de Lyon 's master's degree in Nanoscale Engineering integrates immersion in a high-quality research environment, with practical work and projects conducted in nanotechnology laboratories and companies. Additionally, it addresses ethical issues, the societal impact of nanotechnology and commercial considerations through specialized seminars and courses.
Key facts
Nanoscience is the study of matter at the nanoscale, where materials exhibit unique properties such as enhanced surface area and quantum effects. These properties are essential for advancing fields like nanophysics, nanoelectronics, and nanomedicine, offering groundbreaking applications in technology, healthcare, and material science.
The nanosciences and nanotechnology master's program offers the opportunity to explore nanotechnologies in a stimulating scientific and cultural environment. This multidisciplinary and international program is designed for students wishing to pursue an academic or industrial career.
In two years, the curriculum provides a solid theoretical foundation and practical expertise in fabrication, characterization and design of structures and systems at the nanoscale. Graduates are trained to lead innovative projects at the interface of these cutting-edge disciplines.
With a strongly international focus, this master's program welcomes over 70% international students, and courses are taught entirely in English. Numerous international scientists of international renown are also invited to give seminars throughout the year.
Career opportunities
Career prospects after training : Graduates may pursue PhD studies or join high-tech companies in France or abroad, such as Thalès, CEA, STMicroelectronics, or Google.
Doctoral studies and scientific careers : The majority of graduates choose to pursue doctoral studies. There is high demand for master's-level teaching staff and early-career scientists at the start of their careers.
Corporate opportunities : Graduates can find opportunities in sectors such as electronics, materials (development and applications), biotechnology (analysis and pharmacology), as well as tools and processes (characterization and process development).
Accreditation
Accredited by the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research to confer the Master Degree.
