What are some examples of career opportunities?

The MS in Nanotechnology Engineering, thanks to its complexity and interdisciplinary nature, offers to the student numerous professional opportunities.
Endowed with the ability to operate in an international and multidisciplinary context, the Nanotechnology Engineer will operate in several working environments, ranging from the manufacturing industry with a highly technological content applied to the different fields of engineering (mechanics, aerospace, automotive, transportations, advanced materials, electrotechnics, bioengineering, biomedical engineering, agri-food industry, production and transformation processes), including industries operating in the field of electronics.
Besides carrying out leadership tasks, the nanotechnology engineer is able to manage, coordinate and direct projects of great complexity, having acquired a significant ability to develop innovative methodologies and products. Moreover, the nanotechnology engineer has skills related to the design and control of complex micro and nano-systems, and he/she is able to solve problems rising from the use of micro and nanotechnologies.
Alternatively, graduates from the MSc in Nanotechnology Engineering can find employment as researchers in advanced research centres. On the base of the deep knowledge acquired in the core disciplines of industrial
and electronic engineering, graduates can also take the exam to be included in the Italian register of engineers and subsequently be employed in the national private sector as qualified professionals.
In sum, the course is designed to develop the following professional profiles:

  • Nano and micro-technologies engineer
  • Product development engineer with a focus on macro and nano-materials and devices
  • Engineer specialized in the management and design of complex micro and nano-systems.
