Year 2 program

A specialization in optics or nanosciences

This year is composed of:

A first semester

with some courses in Physics and courses in the specialization chosen by the students. The latter are also involved in practical training and carry out experimental projects depending on their specialization.

A second semester

with an internship in an academic laboratory or in a Research & Development Center in a company, in France or abroad.

Specialization in Nanosciences

Core courses:
Microscopy, Near-field Microscopy and Spectroscopy, Fabrication andcharacterisation of nanodevices and nanoobjects.
