Major in nanotechnology

The objective of this major is to introduce students to physics and the simulation of materials and devices used in the field of micro and nano-electronics, to the properties and methods associated with the manufacturing and classification of micro and nano-structures; to the ways in which nano-devices function as well as the development and integration of organic elements into nano-systems.
