{spoiler=7М07108 Nanomaterials and nanotechnology (by industry)}
The Master's degree is carried out in the scientific and pedagogical direction
Duration of training: 2 years
The language of instruction is English
Goals and objectives:
Training of highly qualified specialists capable of working in advanced fields of science and nanoindustry, creating high-tech nano-infrastructures, applying advanced technologies for the design, development and analysis of technological processes, possessing knowledge and competencies in demand for work in production in the direction of "Nanomaterials and nanotechnology".
Our masters acquire fundamental knowledge in the basic course of materials science, based on a solid experimental and theoretical basis, along with knowledge in elective disciplines based on the latest achievements of science. Masters are being trained to conduct applied scientific research, the results of which can be applied in the industrial sector. The versatility of training allows a specialist to adapt to almost any profession that involves the use of nanomaterials.
Features of the profession
Nanotechnologists create new materials with a well-defined atomic structure. The direction of nanotechnology covers an interdisciplinary field located at the junction of fundamental and applied areas of science and technology. Recently, this direction has become relevant because nanotechnology is the most profound and directed intervention in the structure of matter today. This is a qualitatively new level of accuracy.
The principle of creating nanomaterials at the level of manipulation of individual atoms allows us to obtain properties that cannot be achieved by traditional methods involving chemical reactions involving portions of matter consisting of billions of atoms.
Important qualities
The profession of a nanotechnologist implies an interest in research work, an analytical mindset.
The duties of a nanotechnologist include:
- development of innovative products from the first stage to the last;
- improvement of finished products;
- development of projects, planning of the manufacturing process of innovative products;
- solving technological problems;
- conducting research on key areas of work and preparing reports based on them;
- monitoring of world achievements in the field under study;
- work on the creation of methodological manuals and instructions;
- participation in competitions, writing scientific articles.
Theoretical and practical minimum of Master's degree studies:
To master the program are allowed: specialists with an academic bachelor's degree. The applicant must be prepared for master's degree studies, as well as for research activities in the field of physics, chemistry, nanotechnology and interdisciplinary disciplines. The applicant must possess a diverse arsenal of modern research methods, including the use of specialized computer programs for various calculations. In addition, the applicant must possess the following scientific and methodological skills and abilities:
