NANO Technology


Course description:

 Nanotechnology is the understanding and control of matter at dimensions between approximately 1 and 100 nanometers (mm), where unique phenomena enable novel applications not feasible when working with bulk materials or even with single atoms or molecules. A nanometer is one- billionth of a meter. A sheet of paper is about a third of a nanometer in diameter. Researchers seeking to understand the fundamentals of properties at the nanoscale call their work nanoscience; those focused on effective use of the properties call their work nanoengineering. Encompassing nanoscale science, engineering, and technology, nanotechnology involves imaging, measuring, modeling, and manipulating matter at the nanoscale. Nanoscale phenomena underline many of the properties and interactions of matter, and thus the sciences of physics, chemistry, and biology. Studying these fields, and paying attention to the developments in nanoscience that advance them and the applications in nanotechnology that they support, can provide you with a solid foundation for any of a broad range of careers in nanotechnology.

Career Opportunities:

In a global economy where workers face new demands and opportunities every year, the need to acquire new skills and update existing ones is vital.Nanotechnology – which is estimated to need a worldwide workforce of 3 mmillion by 2016 offers rewarding, cutting- edge employment that touches many different areas of research, technology, and manufacturing, among others. Nanotechnology will create many jobs, at levels requiring post graduate education, four and two year college degrees, as well as skills that can be acquired through training and vocational programs. For instance, many nanotechnology companies report that they are hiring PhDs for routine characterization jobs, which could be more suitaly filled by skilled technicians. All told, Nanotechnologies are estimated to have impacted $251 billion across the global economy in 2009. This is estimated to grow to $2.4 trillion by 2015 above. Everyday hundreds of vacancies and positions are created all over the globe by the emerging R&D sectors in leading organizations such as IBM, GE, Lucent technologies, Indian National Research Labs such as CSIR, DRDO, ISRO and many private firms such as Zyvex, Asian paints, Ranbaxy, Tata chemicals in their respective domains.
