The recommended access route to the doctoral programme is the Master's degree in Molecular Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, or any other related Master's degree. In those cases, in which the student has completed a Master's degree other than those indicated above, but in a related area of knowledge, the Doctoral Studies Academic Committee (CAD) may establish complementary courses which will be, in any case, subjects from the aforementioned Master's degree.

The specific complementary training will correspond to subjects of the Master’s degree in Molecular Nanoscience and Nanotechnology in which the universities participate. Specifically, students will have to take a maximum of 20 credits of the following subjects:

• M1. Introduction to the Master on Molecular Nanoscience and Nanotechnology: Basic concepts (6 ECTS)
• M2. Fundamentals in nanoscience (4,5 ECTS)
• M3. Physical characterisation techniques (4,5 ECTS)
• M4. Physical nanofabrication techniques (3 ECTS)
• M5. Basic concepts of supramolecular chemistry (3 ECTS)
• M6. Molecular nanomaterials: preparation methods, properties and applications (6 ECTS)
• M7. Use of supramolecular chemistry for the preparation of nanostructures and nanomaterials (3 ECTS)
• M8. Molecular electronics (4,5 ECTS)
• M9. Molecular nanomagnetism and spintronics (4,5 ECTS)

The teaching guides of these subjects will be available on the website of the Master’s degree in Molecular Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (www.icmol.es/master/nano).

These subjects are given in intensive courses jointly organised by the participating universities during the Master’s degree.

The CAD will be the body in charge of establishing which complementary courses must take each student, depending on their academic profile. For instance, students with a Chemistry degree who have taken a Master’s degree in Chemistry may be required to take the specific nanoscience modules (M1 and M2) and those related to Physics (M3, M4, M8 and M9). On the other hand, a student with a Physics degree who has taken a Master’s degree in Physics (specialising in Solid State or Materials Science) may have to take the specific nanoscience modules (M1 and M2) and those related to Chemistry (M5, M6 and M7).
