Master's course objectives: |
The field of optics and photonics is at the forefront of many technological applications, highly useful in a wide range of subjects that include information technology and telecommunications, applications in medicine and industry, metrology and detection and also advanced research. It is for this reason that we should contribute to training good specialists in this field.
The objective of this master's course is, consequently, to provide general, quality training in the different areas of photonics, considering both the basic and the applied and technological aspects; and to help students develop skills that enable them to go into industry or research with equal success. |
Prospective career opportunities: |
Master in Photonics graduates will finish their course with a solid knowledge of photonics enabling them to interpret the main phenomena associated with optics and photonics and apply this knowledge, in all its aspects: theoretical, experimental and technological. They will be able to apply the scientific method to real situations and problems in different areas and will be familiar with experimental methods and photonic instruments, as well as in photonic applications in science and technolgy. Students will receive interdisciplinary training, which will give them access to adjoining subject areas. Graduates will be ready to begin a research career in the field of photonics and join the industrial fabric related to photonic technologies.
In particular, Master in Photonics graduates will be valued, recognised professionals who can join R&D departments of firms in the optics, laser, communications and optoelectronics sectors or in research centres. |
