Make a big difference working on a small scale with Physics and Nanotechnology

Explore your passion for science and learn about Physics and Nanotechnology.

Discover the physical world

With this course you will explore classical and modern physics, investigating the physical world around us and beyond. You'll also learn about Nanoscience, the science of the really small, and gain an understanding of the rules and complexities of physics at finer and finer levels.

As a Physics and Nanoscience student you'll gain practical experience, working in our nanotechnology laboratories with state of the art equipment. You will also get the chance to work on exciting and innovative projects - we've just received a patent our work on nanomembranes which are used for skin regeneration for severe burns.

Embrace your inner-inventor

This degree will give you the skills and knowledge to manipulate matter on the nanoscale, allowing you to play an important role in the creation of new materials for areas like medicine, engineering, water purification, energy generation, mobile telecommunications and space exploration.

Graduate study in the Department of Mechanical Engineering-Engineering Mechanics (ME-EM) offers graduate students a wide range of challenging and rewarding courses of study.

The master of science often has a strong application in industry or serves as the basis for the PhD. Current Michigan Tech undergraduate students can earn a MS degree with just a single year of study beyond the BS through the Accelerated Master's Program.

Five key areas of research include:

Advanced Power Systems: Critical technologies for clean, efficient, and sustainable power systems; and modeling of energy transport and conversion processes.

Multi-scale Sensors and Systems: Research includes nanofabrication and characterization, microfabrication processes, and bio-nanotechnology.

Multidisciplinary Engineering Dynamic Systems:
Collaborative research at the interface of engineering disciplines such as dynamics, vibration, acoustics, signal processing, and controls.

Mechanics of Multi-scale Materials: Constitutive modeling of biomaterials, cellular materials, biological tissues, and artificial organs.

Space Systems: Innovative components, systems, and architectures for micro and nanosatellite applications.

Entry Requirements

To be considered for admission to the Graduate School as a degree-seeking student, the applicant must be

- the recipient of a bachelor’s degree or its equivalent from an accredited institution;

- adequately prepared for advanced study in the chosen field of specialization, as demonstrated by the previous program of study and the scholastic record; and

- recommended for admission by the head of the program or concentration

- Admitted applicants typically have an undergraduate GPA of 3.3 or better on a 4.0 scale
