Nanotechnology is a scientific field that deals with the study and application of advanced materials in nanometric dimensions, it has become one of the most important disciplines. last days that affect our lives in general. It is one of the most important scientific fields that affect industrial and technological development, especially those new and advanced technologies necessary for society's development and sustainability. Nanotechnology is an interdisciplinary subject that combines together the laws of physics, chemistry, engineering, materials science, biology, etc.

The mission of this study program is to prepare specialists ready to face the evolution of the latest information and communication technologies with appropriate professional skills in the context of nanotechnology. The teaching process is realized through the use of modern technology, combining theoretical and laboratory work, providing students with practical experience, restoring professional skills and knowledge bases, and sharing activities and knowledge with other professionals. The second cycle study program in Nanotechnology is thought of as a continuation of the first cycle study programs in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Engineering, and Material Science. This study program is organized in English, considering this field’s attractiveness. Graduates of this study program will have employment advantages due to the wide labor market it covers, from industry to research laboratories.

Also, after graduation, students meet the requirements to continue their Doctorate studies in the field of Nanotechnology, Physics, Chemistry, Engineering, and Materials Science. The study program in Nanotechnology ensures compatibility with many other international programs, creating the necessary conditions for the student's transfer to study programs and research institutes abroad.
