In the
coming decades, nanoscience and nanotechnology will undoubtedly become
the driving force for a new set of public utility products, systems, and
applications. They are even expected to become the basis for a new
nanotechnology industrial revolution.
Within a few years, nanoscience applications
are expected to impact virtually every technological sector and
ultimately many aspects of our daily life. In the coming five-to-ten
years, many new products and companies will emerge based on
nanotechnology and nanosciences. These new products will stem from the
knowledge developed at the interface of the various scientific
disciplines offered in this graduate programme of PINSAT.
As a result, the students who graduate with a
degree of B.S. in nanosciences and nanotechnology will be joining
companies developing these new technologies. The graduates will be able
to go into R&D institutions and universities as well as industry. In
the coming years, there will be a strong need for scientists and
engineers whose expertise is precisely at the interface of these various
disciplines, and these graduates will end up in jobs directly aligned
to the education offered in this programme. They will be employed by
companies in the electronics sector, new and smart material industry,
chemical technology, biotechnology companies, sports and textile
industries etc. As graduates of the programme, they will have an ideal
background to become the interface between experts in all these
disciplines and they will be able to use their broad perspective of
nanotechnology to develop and create new products. With their basic
education, they will also end up in R&D, product design, or product
development, or they will have the capability to become an independent
consultants in organizations like Intellectual Property Rights, Patent
Offices etc. The job markets for nanotechnology graduates thus will be
wide open at home and abroad. |
