Master’s students Kumar Sourav Das, Diederik Perdok and Machteld Kamminga in one of the labs of the Surfaces and Thin Films Research Group, which is part of the Zernike Institute for Advanced Materials.

In the foreground is a photo-emission spectrometer, while behind it are the accessory electronics.

The machine is used to determine the electronic structure of solid materials. The Nanoscience Master’s degree at the University of Groningen has been marked as ‘excellent’ by the Accreditation Organisation of the Netherlands and Flanders. Why? Because research and education go hand in hand there.
