Master Degree Courses
The Department offers a wide educational program, consisting in three Master degree courses: Materials Science and Nanotechnology, Optometry and Vision Science, Chemical Science and Technology.
The Department guarantees to all courses large and modern laboratory facilities, to ensure an updated and high-quality training.
The classes are delivered by professors and research associates of the Department, as well as by teachers from other departments, or non-academic experts.
The Master Degree Course in Materials Science and Nanotechnology, taught in English, is a revamped and profoundly revised course from the Master Degree Course in Materials Science (no longer provided from a.y. 2023-2024) that provides graduates a solid multidisciplinary background, across chemistry and physics, capable of designing molecular and atomic structures in the form of materials with specific functionalities. The degree program offers a multidisciplinary approach to address new research and technological innovation tasks, with a focus on sustainability. Graduates in Materials Science and Nanotechnology are professionals who can provide innovative solutions to the complex challenges facing the world today.
The Graduate Program in Materials Science and Nanotechnology offers a Dual Degree track focused on sustainable technology issues.
In the fields of optics, optometry and ophthalmology, we are witnessing a rapid evolution in the instruments, devices and technologies used.
The Master’s Degree in Optometry and Vision Science aims to provide innovative knowledge through educational activities on technologies and materials, optometry and the mechanisms of vision, data analysis and the scientific method.
A variety of teaching activities, both in-presence and online, are planned, including exercises, optometric case studies, projects, sharing of interactive teaching materials, oral presentations by students, student-faculty discussions, face-to-face workshops and work placements.
The course is taught in English. For interested students, there is also a part-time course option that lasts four years instead of two.
The Master's Degree in Chemical Sciences and Technologies belongs to the Class of Degrees in Chemical Sciences, has a duration of two years and involves the acquisition of 120 university credits (UC) for the achievement of the degree.
The Master's Degree is open access to those who have a Bachelor degree; to check the chemical knowledge an admission interview is done, to evaluate the personal preparation.
The official language of the course is Italian, but some courses borrowed from other Master’s Degrees are taught in English and other courses may be taught in English in the presence of foreign students.
At the end of the studies, the Master's Degree in Chemical Sciences and Technologies is awarded. The title allows access to PhD courses. The Master's degree is accredited by Chemistry Euromaster®. Graduates in Chemical Science and Technology have the possibility to enroll in section a of the professional register of Italian Chemists, after passing the State Exam. The Master's Degree aims to provide students with a solid basic cultural preparation in the various chemical fields and a high mastery of methods and scientific content in the innovative aspects of modern chemistry regarding the study of complex systems and applications in advanced fields of research and production.
