Physics, Photonics, & Nanotechnology (PPN) is a Master of Science in physics, which is fully taught in English for international students as well as for French students who would like to study in an international environment. PPN addresses all holders of a Bachelor of Science degree in physics.It is organized by the Department of Physics of Sciences & Technology Faculty at the University of Bourgogne, in cooperation with the Laboratory Interdisciplinaire Carnot de Bourgogne (ICB). PPN addresses modern concepts and state-of-the-art techniques in photonics, optical communications, nanotechnology, laser technology, and quantum technologies. Special emphasis will be given to femtosecond laser science, nonlinear fiber optics, nano-optics, quantum control and quantum information, molecular spectroscopy, biophysics at the nanoscale, nanosensors & nano-characterization. PPN is divided in six academic units, of 6 ECTS (European credits) and 60 hours each:

• Ultrafast femtosecond optics
• Nanophotonics
• Solitons and optical communications
• Quantum technologies
• Nanobiosciences
• Advanced laser technology and nanotechnology

It is completed by a 5 months master thesis (24 ECTS) in a research group of the Laboratory ICB. The student is recruited as a trainee during his master research by the University of Bourgogne.
