About the Nanotechnology Masters Course Directory:

Many universities are recognising that a new approach to education and training is needed to meet the needs of the burgeoning nanoscience and nanotechnology research and development communities.

This has resulted in an expansion in the number of new Nano Masters degree courses. These courses differ widely in emphasis and content; for example some may be slanted towards nanomaterials, others to the life sciences.

To this end, an easily accessible website has been created, where students and employers alike can search for the Nano Masters courses that best suit their competences and skills needs.
