Students must complete 10 course units at the graduate level (500+)

Students must attend and submit reports on four technical seminars (two seminars per year for full-time students). Students are expected to present on seminars they attended during their first year to the new cohort of Nano students the following year.

Science or Technology-Relevant Electives:

• These courses may be chosen from: any SEAS course (including engineering entrepreneurship, technology policy, NANO 597 Master's Thesis Research, special topics, and/or NANO 599 Master's Independent Study, as well as technology-relevant courses from other Penn departments (typically physics, chemistry, math, biology, etc.).
• The courses must have significant technical and scientific content and relevance to the student’s program.
• Approval must be obtained from the NANO program prior to enrollment in the course.
