According to the "Societal Implications of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, (NSF, March 2001), "development of nanotechnology will depend upon multidiscipilnary teams of highly trained people with backgrounds in biology, medicine, applied and computational mathematics, physics, chemistry and in electrical, chemical and mechanical engineering. Team leaders and innovators will probably need expertise in mutliple subsets of these disciplines." Current opinions state the science is so complex, that typical business leaders will need scientific expertise to evaluate the products, and/or scientists will need advanced business education to manage the emerging technologies.
If one were to predict the human intellectual resources for the future, it becomes obvious that scarcity of personnel will become a major impedement to growth. It is with thought in mind that Quantum Recruitment will seek to inform our students about current and developing nanotechnology programs.
Nanometer Scale Summer School at Washington State Univ.
Summer school program for physical chemistry on the nanometer scale. Intended for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, as well as two and four-year college faculty.
