Overview
About the Program
Students undertaking the M.Sc. program in Nano Science & Technology at Mount Carmel College are trained to explore and acquire an in-depth understanding of the episteme – Nano Science & Technology. By putting in a conscious effort to impart knowledge about the field by reputed professors and lecturers, this program is designed to foster a culture wherein students’ talent is amplified with knowledge, technical training and guidance. Through rigorous evaluation patterns, our students are encouraged to put their skills to use and venture into the field of Nano Science & Technology by enhancing their critical thinking abilities and sensibilities. On acquiring knowledge of the qualitative and quantitative techniques as well as gaining an in-depth understanding of the field, Graduates of this degree will be able to demonstrate their skills in synthesis of nanomaterials, characterization techniques, fabrication of sensors and devices, Lithography Techniques and Fabrication, MEMS and Sensors, etc. The Curricular and Extracurricular activities are designed in a way to ensure that the students receive a holistic understanding through the curriculum.
