STUDYING IN CHINA Nanoscience and nanotechnology is expected to have great impact on the development of new technologies that will influence the everyday lives of billions of people, including fields such as materials, the environment, energy, communication and health. In the future, there will be a big demand for scholars with knowledge of nanoscience. If you decide to enroll in the MSc in Nanoscience and Technology offered at SDC in Beijing, you’ll find yourself in the middle of a research environment that is currently experiencing explosive growth.
Admissions requirements Admission to the Master’s programme in Nanoscience and Technology is based on a succesfully completed Bachelor’s programme in a relevant field, e.g.: • Nanoscience • Chemistry • Physics • Biochemistry • Materials Science
WHAT IS SDC? Sino-Danish Center for Education and Research (SDC) is a partnership between all eight Danish universities and University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS) in Beijing. SDC in Beijing offers seven unique Master’s programmes jointly developed by Danish and Chinese research environments.
WHO’S BEHIND THE PROGRAMME? The MSc in Nanoscience and Technology has been developed by the University of Copenhagen in collaboration with University of Chinese Academy of Sciences. Aarhus University contribute to the programme.
