The Master of Nanoscale Engineering is conducted under the aegis of the University of Lyon by a consortium of three renowned institutions: the École Centrale de Lyon, the INSA de Lyon, and  the Université Claude Bernard – Lyon 1.

All lectures, laboratory practicals, internships and thesis projects are carried out in close collaboration with research laboratories in Lyon and they often involve international partners. This strong link between research and education ensures a continuous improvement of the program to reflect the progress of science and technology in this innovative and rapidly-evolving field.

What our students say

“The master NSE proved to be an invaluable experience. From an educational perspective, having studied Biotechnology, the master opened me a whole new perspective into Science through the courses, and ended up shaping my doctoral thesis. Moreover, as my classmates and I came from very different scientific disciplines, we had to learn to communicate with each other, as it turned out that we considered things from very different viewpoints, which is what happens in the real world, but it is not always obvious. Finally, it was as well an extremely nourishing experience from a cultural perspective, as we were coming from all corners of Earth, which pushed us into knowing other cultures, and resulted in lifelong friendships and the creation of a small yet big international family!”
