Academic, scientific or professional interest: The master's degree in Advanced Materials fits in the academic and researcher profile through an academic offer of subjects in the area of Materials Science and Technology. The approach of the master's allows the development of those aspects, both basic and applied of the advanced materials, that can be found in the intersection between physics, chemistry, biology/medicine and engineering, which shows the interdisciplinary character of this master's degree.
The entities that participate in this master's degree are the universities of València, Alicante, Autonomous of Madrid, Barcelona, Castilla-La Mancha, Málaga, Politècnica de València, Santiago de Compostela y Zaragoza. Precisely, this inter-university nature of the Master’s degree (i) allows the mobility of the students in training activities programmed in the diverse headquarters (public project presentations, conference series, project exhibitions and other events); (ii) provides the master with a scientific level and a multidisciplinarity that any of the universities could reach separately. This master's degree achieves to join together a teaching personnel integrated by the best researchers of each of the participant universities; (iii) boosts in Spain the consolidation of a community of young scientists trained in this strategic research area; (iv) favours the research education of the students in the diverse headquarters for the development of determinate stages of the research projects.
This master's degree is one of the main collaborative actions established in the Complementary Plan on Advanced Materials of the Plan on Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan of the Spanish government (2021-2026).
Aside from the general objectives of this qualification, the objective of the dual mention is to complement the university academic training with the practical training in companies, to get to know better the working environment and to facilitate the professional integration.
It is intended to:
• Provide the students with a training oriented to the enterprise or institution R+D in the sector of advanced materials, through the acquisition of the necessary knowledge, skills and competences for their future professional development in this sector, through the design of diverse profiles in collaboration with the implied entities.
• Contribute to increment the employability of graduates in the business fabric.
• Instil in the students the necessity of creating a self corporate identity, that incorporates, since the beginning, solid professional ethics.
