CHEMISTRY SINGLETON PARK CAMPUS
IN THE WORLD (Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2021) 400 RANKED IN TOP
We have excellent, purpose-built modern access to diverse laboratories and research infrastructures. High-quality, high-impact chemistry research is also thriving in the University’s world-class centres such as The Centre for NanoHealth, Institute of Mass Spectrometry, Institute of Life Sciences, Energy Safety Research Institute, Multidisciplinary Nanotechnology Centre, Welsh Centre for Printing and Coating, Centre for Water Advanced Technologies and Environmental Research and Materials Research Centre.
We work closely with the Faculty of Science & Engineering and Swansea University Medical School to create an environment of research excellence. This allows students and staff to invent, innovate and develop products to make step-change advances with impact on current global challenges.
SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNOLOGY AND APPLICATIONS MSc FT Semiconductors are everywhere – from the processor and AI chips in our smartphones to electronic devices for electric and autonomous vehicles, to new sensors for healthcare. The MSc in Semiconductor Technology and Applications is an exciting course covering all aspects of semiconductor materials and technologies from silicon to compound semiconductors, to next generation semiconductors (plastic electronics and 2D materials). Students will learn how to design and fabricate semiconductor devices and how these technologies are used in applications including communications, AI, automotive, photonics, intelligent sensing and more. Modules will cover: • A Broad Range of Applications (Power electronics, PV, Clean Energy, AI, Automotive, Photonics, Intelligent Sensing, Healthcare technologies) • Current and Next Generation Semiconductor Materials
• Device Design, Testing and Characterisation • Industry Related Research Project • MEMS and Sensors • Semiconductor Devices • Semiconductor Processing and Fabrication
TAUGHT COURSES Entry Requirements A first or second class degree or higher in related Science or Engineering degree or at least 5 years prior experience in semi-conductor research/industry. English Language Requirement We consider a wide range of qualifications, including the Swansea University English Test, the British Council IELTS test (with a score of at least 6.5 and 5.5 in in each component)
SCHOLARSHIPS AND BURSARIES We offer a range of funding
opportunities for research degrees. Recently we have attracted funding from organisations such as the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) for postgraduate scholarships. swansea.ac.uk/postgraduate/ scholarships
