Materials Science and Technology University of Padua

Overview

The students of the Materials Science and Technology PhD at the University of Padua  can perform their research activity in the labs of the three reference Departments: the Dept. of Chemical Sciences (DiSC), the Dept. of Physics and Astronomy (DFA) and the Dept. of Industrial Engineering (DII). Indeed, SIMN adopts a highly multi-disciplinary approach to training through the combination of complementary expertise exceeding the traditional boundaries between disciplines like chemistry, physics or engineering and providing advanced training opportunities in the field of materials, in particular nanostructured ones, to Students coming from different degree programs. This approach will provide the SIMN Students a vision, as much as possible transversal and wide, of the development of innovative materials encompassing different fields of application such as energetics, catalysis, nanophotonics, optoelectronics, sensing or biomedicine

Career Opportunities

The acquired ability to master different languages and the special emphasis given to transversal and multidisciplinary skills will provide the SIMN Students the possibility to find job placement both in academic or public research and in R&D division at industrial level.
