Nanotech Masters Recognition

Welcome to the
Nanotechnology Masters Courses Directory
and Recognition Scheme

The Institute of Nanotechnology (IoN), has developed the Nanotechnology Masters Courses Directory and Recognition Scheme in collaboration with a consortium of course-providing academics and industry representatives. Many international Institutions are now also participating in the scheme.

Nanotechnology Masters Courses each vary in their emphasis and content, and the NanoMasters Course Website provides a means for prospective students to search for details of Nano Masters Courses of specific interest to them. To compare all courses, please go to the summary page.

This Directory wll also enable representatives from industry to assess which Nano Masters courses address the skills and disciplines relevant to their company and its products.

Further aims of the recognition scheme are:

To encourage dialogue between academics and industry to ensure that courses equip students with the skills and knowledge required to fulfill industry needs.
To provide an international forum for the sharing of knowledge and best practice amongst course providers, and encouraging co-operation in terms of facilities, lectures and modules, as appropriate.

The NanoMasters Course Directory and Recognition Scheme Objectives:

To enable an online comparison of multi-disciplinary content of courses
To allow a prospective student to choose the correct course based on their skills and future aspirations
To offer course providers the opportunity to reach out to talent internationally
To assist employers in understanding the acquired competences of course graduates, in relation to their business needs, and provide feedback
