The Swiss Nanoscience Institute (SNI) at the University of Basel is a center for nanosciences and nanotechnology. It was founded in 2006 by the Canton of Aargau and the university .[1]
SNI network
The SNI network includes various departments at the University of Basel, the University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland (FHNW), the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), the Department for Biosystems Science and Engineering at the Federal Institute of Technology ETH Zurich (D-BSSE), and the CSEM (Centre Suisse d’Electronique et de Microtechnique) in Muttenz.
Membership of the SNI comes from participating in SNI projects.
Programs
In 2002, the University of Basel launched the Bachelor's and master's degree programs in nanosciences. The annual Bacherlor's programme cohort is of around 40 students and includes biology, chemistry, physics and mathematics.
In 2013 the SNI initiated a PhD School in 2013. At the end of 2014, 24 doctoral students were enrolled.
