Mestrado em Ciência e Tecnologia de Nanomateriais

Materials Properties and Applications is a generalist course which aims at providing the students with an understanding of the materials properties of different classes of materials (at different scales, from atomic-molecular level to macroscopic), from the chemical and physical and to the mechanical properties, and also the functionalities and applications of materials.

It is intended that at the end of the course the student is able to:
(i) identify the different classes of materials;
(ii) describe their internal structure, properties and functionalities;
(iii) describe preparation techniques, processing and characterization of materials;
(iv) apply acquired knowledge to describe the most current materials of daily, industrial and technological use.
