Bachelor in Nano Science and Engineering

Nano Science and Engineering at Yonsei University focuses on the study and manipulation of materials and structures at the nanoscale. Students typically study physics, chemistry, and materials science alongside specialized coursework in nanofabrication, nanomaterials, and the engineering principles used to design devices at extremely small scales. Laboratory work is a significant part of programs in this field, giving students hands-on experience with the instruments and techniques used to characterize and build nanoscale structures, such as those found in semiconductors, sensors, and advanced materials. Coursework often draws connections to applications in electronics, energy, and biomedical technology, showing students how nanoscale engineering feeds into larger industrial and scientific fields. Graduates pursue careers as materials engineers, semiconductor process engineers, and researchers in nanotechnology, working across electronics manufacturing, materials science, and advanced research institutions. Many continue into graduate study, since research in this field often requires specialized training beyond the undergraduate level, while others enter directly into technology and manufacturing industries that rely on nanoscale materials and devices. This bachelor's degree is offered by Yonsei University, located in the Seodaemun-gu district of Seoul, South Korea. The program runs for eight semesters, or four years, with intake in March or September. Instruction is delivered in English, allowing international students to study nano science and engineering without needing to first learn Korean. The program combines foundational science with specialized engineering training aimed at nanoscale applications.
