Program Details

Study matter at a scale on the order of 10 to thousands of atoms. Nanoscience has the potential to revolutionize a broad range of industries, from construction and aeronautics to vehicle design and biomedicine.

Examine nanoscience through the disciplines of physical/inorganic chemistry, biochemistry and electrical engineering to understand the physical, chemical, biochemical and electronic characteristics of matter in this size regime. Combining these areas of study will allow you to grasp nanoscience in photonic, electronic, biomedical, energy and communication technologies.

The focus of the program will be on materials—their use in electronic devices, their scalability and the control of their properties. Courses in mathematics, physics and statistics will round out the program, and advanced courses in bionanoscience and nanoelectronics are available. A concentration in Nanotechnology is also available within the Chemistry program.

Work Experience

Our location in Ottawa means that our programs and professors are linked to a wealth of resources, including National Research Council of Canada research centres, government labs as well as microelectronic, communication, and healthcare companies. Ottawa is also home to world-class libraries, Canada’s largest high-tech park, bio-tech sectors, medical research hospitals, industry-sponsored labs and political organizations, all of which provide you with rich possibilities for placements, internships and other work opportunities.

State-of-the-Art Facilities

Nanoscience students are able to gain hands-on experiences in Carleton's state-of-the-art research facilities, including the Superlab and Nano Imaging Facility.
