NANO4104: Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Honours B
2024 unit information
This unit provides a real practical learning research experience of modern Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, building upon the previous NANO2002 core unit, covering an introduction to Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, and all the core units of the Program. The unit is structured to provide a real research experience in a real research group for the duration of 2 semesters. The unit follows the conventional Honours project unit offered in Physics or Chemistry. However, the Nano-Honour program requires the student to choose a specific subject in a preferred research group regardless of the Faculty or the School where the research group operates. The only two compulsory restrictions are that the project must be related in some way to Nanoscience and Nanotechnology and be worth 24 credit points. You will be guided, trained, supervised and assessed by the supervisor and the research group you selected. This will enable you to play a role in finding nanotechnological solutions to global challenges that impact our lives.

- LO2. Work collaboratively and autonomously with academic integrity with others in the processes of learning, experimentation, problem-solving and assessment.
- LO3. Apply the nanoscience and nanotechnology knowledge acquired to a practical research project.
- LO4. Dissect scientific problems and investigate the mechanics associated with each constitute element as they relate to the wider problem implications.
- LO5. Unite constituent elements of a research project in order to create and generate solutions to complex problems.
- LO6. Communicate scientific information appropriately, both orally and through written work.
