Nanoscience is expected to help solve a variety of problems in medicine, pharmaceuticals, energy, and the environment by controlling substances on the scale of one-billionth of a meter to create new functionality and more exceptional materials.
The Institute is dedicated to endowing students with knowledge in both chemistry and physics so that they can pursue fields in related research and development.
The Nanoscience Institute course strives to train a new generation of nanoscience experts by having students study chemistry and physics in a way that cuts across and combines the two disciplines through lectures and experiments in a small-group setting so that they can master advanced, specialized skills.
