As one of the first in Europe, Chalmers Tekniska Högskola has been running an international Master's programme in Nanophysics since 1996 with a strong foundation in quantum physics and engineering. This has recently been developed further into a consistent Nanoscale Science and Technology program through a combination of theoretical and experimental courses. In particular Chalmers is running a newly developed course in Modelling and Fabrication of Micro/nanodevices which should give the students hands-on training in clean room fabrication procedures through project work in collaboration with research groups. Chalmers Tekniska Högskola is at the forefront of research in the fields of Quantum devices, Super conducting electronics, Quantum computing, and Molecular Electronics through Department of Micro technology and Nanoscience and its top-ranking clean room and process-laboratory.. Other specialties are single-electron and Josephson junction devices for measurement, digital computing, quantum information processing, MEMS, photonics and microwave electronics. Also, Chalmers has a very active entrepreneurial school working close to the researchers. The educational elements supplied by Chalmers for the EMM-Nano are strongly research-based, involving teachers from the research staff, and dealing with subjects closely related to ongoing research.
