University of the Basque Country

The current Basque Autonomous Community, placed in Bilbao, San Sebastian, and Vitoria-Gasteiz. The UPV/EHU hosts 156 research groups.

A research community has been created at the Campus o Ibaeta of the University of the Basque Country in San Sebastian, in the area of Physics and Chemistry of Materials, where researchers from different institutions collaborate both in educational and in research activities. The agents that are involved in this community are the Materials Physics Department (UPV/EHU) of the University, the Materials Physics joint center (CSIC-UPV/EHU), the Donostia International Physics Center (independent Foundation), and the Nanoscience Cooperative Research Center nanoGUNE (independent Foundation).

These four institutions collaborate in the framework of the PhD program “Physics of Nanostructures and Advanced Materials” (PNAM), recognized by the Spanish Ministry of Education as a highly-qualified PhD program (Mención de Calidad MCD2007-00052)
