Graduate Studies

Many of you may want to continue your studies in post graduate work, either in a Masters or Ph D. program. The graduate opportunities for students in nanoengineering are as vast as the field itself. Whether your interests are in the fundamentals of Nanoscience or the current applications of Nanotechnology, there are numerous universities in North America that are actively conducting research in such areas as nanoelectronics, nanophotonics, quantum structures, and biomaterials. Furthermore, a number of universities have nano fabrication or research centers with the facilities and resources necessary to conduct successful graduate work.

When applying to graduate studies, you apply for admission into a specific department. Departments of interested for nano related research include, but are not exclusive to, Materials Science & Engineering, Electric Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Chemistry, and Physics.

As nanoengineers continue to graduate from the Engineering Science program they will be heavily sought after by graduate schools and research institutes. Their unique multidisciplinary training, including courses in its core curriculum from five different engineering and science departments, make it the most complete and robust undergraduate preparation for novel materials and device research in the world.
Already the success of the first graduating class of Nanoengineering is notable, with graduate students pursuing degrees in such universities as Cornell, Oxford, the Unversity of Alberta, and The University of Toronto.
