Nanoscale Science and Technology Then What? IMP(F) Nano S&T R&D in industry PhD The IMP(F) program is equally suitable for research, development, and technical management in industry, or academic research and training for a PhD. Around half of the IMP(F) students have gone on to PhD studies here at Chalmers, at the Physics and Electrical Engineering departments.
