Molecular nano- and bio-photonics for telecommunications and biotechnologies

This interdisciplinary Master's Course offers an original qualification in the highly innovative domain of molecular photonics for telecommunications and biology.

This integrated study program starts with a common basic training at ENS Cachan (Fundamentals in Photonics and Biology). The second semester is spent either at Complutense, (Organic chemistry and sensors), or at the University of Wroclaw, (Biochemistry and modeling). At the end of the first year a summer school will be organized and devoted to a research topic relevant to the Master Program. The third semester will be spent either in Cachan (materials and photonic devices for optical signal processing or biological applications), or at the Wroclaw University of Technology (optoelectronics and photonics for life sciences). The last semester will be fully devoted to a research project in an Academic or Industry laboratory.

Each student will have to follow courses in at least two different Institutions. A full semester must be spent in a single Institution. Each mobility period corresponds to one semester, i.e. September-December of the first Academic year (to be spent in Cachan), January-May of the first year (at Wroclaw University or Complutense University), September- February of the second year (to be spent either in Cachan or at WUT), and March-August of the second Year (Microthesis). The mobility mechanism is summarized in the following table:

At the Wrocław University of Technology this program is open for the students of the Chemistry Department, Faculty of Microsystem Electronics and Photonics and Faculty of Fundamental Problems of Technology. Applicants having successfully performed at least 3 years of Academic training are eligible for application. Admission criteria are based on previously obtained marks, training contents, scientific excellence of training Institutions, motivation and recommendation letters, awards and excellence grants, language skills.
