Here is a partial list of universities offering nanotechnology education, and the degrees offered (Bachelor of Science, Master of Science, or PhD in Nanotechnology).
Department of Nanotechnology offers two year M.Sc. course in Nanotechnology, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, Aurangabad-431004, Maharashtra State, India.
The Weizmann Institute of Science - has a research group in the Department of Science Teaching that build programs for introduction high school teachers and students to Nanotechnology.[14][15]
National University of Singapore - B.Eng in Engineering Science with Nanoscience & Nanotechnology options, master's and PhD in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Specialization
A list of the master's programs is kept by the UK-based Institute of Nanotechnology in their Nano, Enabling, and Advanced Technologies (NEAT) Post-graduate Course Directory.[18]
Ural Federal University (UrFU) - bachelor's (master's) of Engineering & Technology: "Nanotechnology and Microsystem Technology", "Electronics and Nanoelectronics" (profiles: "Physical Electronics", "Functional Materials of micro-, opto-and nanoelectronics")[33]
Universidad de las Américas Puebla (UDLAP)- bachelor's (Nanotechnology and Molecular Engineering).[48] This undergraduate program was the first one at Mexico and Latin America, specializing professionals in the field; it started in August 2006. An account on its historical development has recently been published.[49]
Cinano.com, International Association of Nano and California Institute of Nano, (CNCP) Certified Nano and Clean technology Professional-Nanotechnology Experience for Engineers[69]
Radiological Technologies University - M.S. in Nanomedicine and dual MS in Nanomedicine and Medical Physics
Rice University - Public Outreach, K to 12 Summer Programs, Undergraduate and Graduate Programs/Degrees, Integrated Physics & Chemistry - Nanotechnology Experience for Teachers Program, Research Experience for Undergraduates Program[74]
Rochester Institute of Technology, B.S., M.S. Microelectronic Engineering, Ph.D Microsystems Engineering[75]
Stevens Institute of Technology - Five departments in engineering and science offer Master of Science, Master of Engineering, and Doctor of Philosophy degrees with Nanotechnology concentration[76]
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in introducing nanoscience and nanotechnology in grade schools, especially at the high school level. In the United States, although very few high schools officially offer a two-semester course in nanotechnology, “nano” concepts are bootstrapped and taught during traditional science classes using a number of educational resources and hands-on activities developed by dedicated non-profit organizations, such as:
The National Science Teacher Association, which has published a number of textbooks for nanotechnology in K-12 education, including a teacher's guide and an activity manual for hands-on experiences.
Nano-Link, a notable program of the Dakota County Technical College, which has developed a variety of nanotech-related hands-on activities supported by toolkits to teach concepts in nanotechnology throughout direct lab experience.[93]
Omni Nano, which is developing comprehensive educational resources specifically designed to support a two-semester high school course, both online and in classrooms. Omni Nano also discusses issues in nanotechnology education on its dedicated blog.[94]
Nano4Me, which has a good amount of resources for K-12 education, although their program is intended for higher education. Their K-12 resources include introductory level modules and activities, interactive multimedia, and a collection of experiments and hands-on activities.[95]
Nanoscale Informal Science Education Network (NISE), which has a website of educational products designed to engage the public in nano science, engineering, and technology. NISE also organizes Nano Days, a nationwide festival of educational programs about nanoscale science and engineering and its potential impact on the future.
In Egypt, in2nano is a high school outreach program aiming to increase scientific literacy and prepare students for the sweeping changes of nanotechnology.[96]
Nanoscale Informal Science Education Network (NISE) has a website of educational products designed to engage the public in nano science, engineering, and technology.[citation needed] The NISE Network also organizes Nano Days, a nationwide festival of educational programs about nanoscale science and engineering and its potential impact on the future.[97]
