Education & Teaching
Education and training have been integral to activities associated with SCML for more than two decades, spanning undergraduate, master's, and doctoral levels, as well as specialised advanced courses and international research schools.
University-level teaching background
At the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), teaching responsibilities covered a broad range of physics and materials-related subjects at master's and advanced level, including: general master-level physics; advanced condensed matter physics; light, neutron, and X-ray scattering methods; soft matter science; complexity and nonlinear dynamics; soft-matter-based technologies; and microfluidics and flow in confined soft-matter systems.
Advanced and specialist training
In addition to formal university teaching, educational activities have included advanced training through international workshops, doctoral schools, and thematic courses in collaboration with European and international partners and large-scale research facilities.
Typical thematic areas covered by SCML International
- Soft and complex matter physics
- Layered materials and clay minerals
- Scattering methods (SAXS, SANS, SALS, diffraction, DLS, XPCS)
- Microfluidics, confinement, transport, and flow in complex fluids
- Structural colour and photonic materials
- Gas separation and confined or porous systems
- Sustainable and earth-abundant material platforms, including nano- and quantum-relevant systems
- Interplay between physics, chemistry, materials science, and nanoscience and technology
SCML International framework
Within SCML International, educational activity is continued through the provision of advanced short courses, specialised lectures, supervision within collaborative research projects, and contributions to doctoral training through partner institutions. These activities are aligned with the focus on fundamental physical understanding combined with sustainability-oriented materials science.
