MS in Nanoscale Science

By Department of Nanoscale Science & Engineering, University at Albany

Explore a diverse, interdisciplinary field through leading-edge research and in-depth coursework where you will gain a deep theoretical and practical understanding of nanoscale materials, structure and architectures. In UAlbany’s MS in Nanoscale Science program you can choose from a range of tracks pertaining to nanoelectronic, optoelectrical, optical, nanosystems, energy and nanobiological fields. You’ll graduate with skills and knowledge that are in high demand in industries ranging from forensics and food science to energy and the environment. From here you’ll be well equipped to pursue a competitive doctoral program or a trailblazing career. Because nanoscale science is highly interdisciplinary and our students come to the program from a range of science disciplines, all students enroll in a sequence of foundational courses that provide the core competencies necessary for success in nanoscale science and engineering fields. You’ll earn the rest of your credits through master’s level research, seminars and other nanoscale science and engineering courses, which are determined in part by which of the seven tracks you choose to pursue.
