Programme descriptionAdvanced materials and new energy solutions are areas into which both industry and research institutions are to put a lot of effort. Master´s Degree studies within material chemistry, material physics or energy physics will make you interesting for future employers.; The main areas of focus in this Master´s Degree Programme are physical and chemical aspects of organic and inorganic materials, with special attention being paid to structure, synthesis, reactivity and physical properties. You can choose to specialize in material chemistry, material physics or energy physics. As a student in this programme you will achieve both theoretical knowledge and practical skills through experimental activity. The research groups behind this programme are also involved in the "Centre for Materials, Science and Nanotechnology", and they are taking part in national research projects. The research within this field includes fuel cells, superconductors, development of new materials, semiconductors, sensors, membranes, light metals, power plants without release of CO2, catalysis, petro chemistry, functional polymers, hydro-gels, biosurfaces and nano chemistry.; The groups participate in international research projects and cooperate with researchers from different countries around the world. This gives us the opportunity to offer our students training periods abroad. Several projects are also conducted in close cooperation with Norwegian industry.
