About this course
Could atoms and molecules hold the secret to saving our planet?
Our MSc in Nanotechnology and Renewable Energy will allow you to discover the practical implementation of nanoscience and quantum engineering, nanomaterials, and nanotechnology for renewable energy generation and storage.
You will be taught by internationally-recognised experts in the University’s Advanced Technology Institute, and gain specialised skills through an individual research project within our research groups, using the latest advanced equipment and facilities.
This course is specifically designed to equip you for the energy industry, most notably in solar energy and storage, as well as providing you the opportunity to pursue further research through a PhD course.
A minimum of a 2:2 UK honours degree in either Advanced Materials, Computer Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Electronic and Electrical Engineering, Materials Science, Nano Sciences, Physical Chemistry or Physics, or a recognised equivalent international qualification. We’ll also consider relevant work experience if you don’t meet these requirements.
