Parcours Research Intensive track 1re année

Présentation et objectifs

This PhD-track program is dedicated to students having a 4-years Batchelor of Science and who wish to pursue their studies with a PhD in Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies.

The specificity of this track is an extended master thesis performed over the two years of the master, allowing the student to achieve a substantial research project.

The first year of the program contains:

• general courses corresponding to 6 ECTS, among which 3 credits of french language
• transverse courses in nanosciences  and nanotechnologies (15 credits) with a large focus on experimental training in the cleanrooms and nanosciences facilities of the Grenoble area
• specialization courses in one of the 3 possible specialities, nano-physics, nano-chemistry, nano-biosciences
• a research project of 24 ECTS performed in a research institute during an internship extending over the entire school year.

In the second year, student join one of the specialization track in nano-physics, nano-chemistry or nano-biosciences, depending on the courses and the research subject that they have choosen in the first year.

The objective of the Research-Intensive Track is to offer a two year programme in Nanosciences and Nanotechnology for students who intend to pursue in PhD, with a master thesis extending over two years and allowing to achieve a substantial research project.
