Course contents

The main objective of the school is to prepare researchers for designing, building and
characterizing nanomaterials and nanostructured materials (NSM), tools and devices that
meet the growing applicative needs to make the industrial production more effective,
affordable and sustainable and to meet the growing needs of our society and promoting its
progress. The school is meant for graduates in physics, chemistry, engineering, biology,
biotechnology, medicine, dentistry, pharmacy and pharmaceutical technology who aim at
acquiring high-level interdisciplinary competence through courses and seminars covering also
fields different from their own, while carrying out research projects in the framework of
collaborations with (inter)national research institutions and industries.
The main objectives of the research can be summarized as follows:
1) Synthesis and engineering of nanomaterials and NSM;
2) Development of new techniques for study, manipulate and visualize nanomaterials and
NSM at the nanoscale;
3) Study of the relationships between structure and properties of nanomaterials;
4) Theoretical studies and molecular approaches for the investigation of NMS and related
phenomena;
5) Development of sensors for the detection of bio-molecules or compounds at very low
concentrations;
6) Application of nanotechnology, nanomaterials and NSM in the energy sector;
7) Application of nanotechnology, nanomaterials and NSM in the biological, pharmaceutical,
and medical sectors.

Employment opportunities

Possible employment opportunities for a PhD doctor in Nanotechnology have been growing in the last years, especially in Italy, where the implementation of the nanotechnologies in industry has been demanding for an increasing number of figures having a strong multidisciplinar background and training. The areas of employment are as many as those involving the nanotechnologies such as for example: food, energy, electronics, manufacturing, health, biology, biotechnology, physics, chemistry, cultural heritage. The PhD Program in Nanotechnology of the University of Trieste, characterized by a strong multidisciplinarity, trains scientists suitable to become researchers/responsible of R&D activities/responsible of laboratories or projects in public institutions or private companies where are requested people able to manage research projects and activities involving specialists from various disciplines.
PhD scientists in Nanotechnology are prepared to work in the management of industries and service companies in the field of advanced technologies. Stable collaborations with the local research Institutions offer the PhD students in Nanotechnology several job placement opportunities.
