Description of the

Nanoscience is the
"investigation,
fabrication and
characterization of

is by its very
nature
interdisciplinary.
The required
education curriculum
is also , by nature
interdisciplinary

HB 1264 (6), says
with regard to the

there shall be

Education and
Skill
Requirements
Almost all of
the occupations
which will be
affected by
nanotechnology
will require a
BS in
engineering with
a broad,
interdisciplinary
and
multi-disciplinary
approach.
Nanotechnology
will require an
understanding
not only of
electrical,
mechanical and
civil
engineering, but
biology, physics
and chemistry as
well. |

North Carolina
A&T, as one of
the state's two

Its programs
include
engineering,

For Liberal Arts UNC Greensboro with
doctorial programs in music and
nursing to offer Nanoscience
degrees requires access to NC A&T
academic programs and research:
“Although the degree is in
Nanoscience (does not include
Nanoengineering)

students will be given the
opportunity to take relevant courses
at the School of Engineering at
North Carolina A&T University and
must be able to work on
collaborative projects with faculty
in the School of Engineering. |

Policy for
Interdisciplinary
Degree

An Interdisciplinary
Degree program involves
two or more academic
units, either on the
same or
different campuses in a
formal agreement to
offer a program of study
drawing on two or more
disciplines that will
result in a student
being awarded an
interdisciplinary
degree. If more than one
campus is involved in
offering the program it
would also be a joint

| Unambiguous lack of UNCG Chancellor Dr. Linda Brady signed Proposals requesting to establish Nanoscience Professional Master of Science in Nanoscience and Ph.D. Nanoscience clearly demonstrated UNCG had not expressed intentions to establish the degrees, they had not been approved by the faculty and administration, and were not pursuant UNC Policies 400.1.1,1[G]and 400.1.1.5[G]. |

Dr. James Sadler Associate Vice President for Academic Planning University of North Carolina :
December 9, 2009
UNC Graduate Council recommends authorization of the joint PhD |
|
|
|
Doctor of Philosophy in Nanoscience
The PhD in Nanoscience requires a minimum of 60 hours and is designed to prepare students to take positions in industrial, governmental, or academic research settings by providing a solid background in Nanoscience theory and experimental techniques through course work and dissertation research. |
 |
| The PhD program will include a core interdisciplinary curriculum that provides a thorough background in the principles and tools required for a research career in nanoscience. |
|
|
| |
”The addition of a doctoral program is not an easy or simple extension of the master’s program. Unlike most master’s programs, a doctoral program is research-based. While doctoral program requirements routinely include additional course work, the central program requirement is the dissertation. The topic for the dissertation normally derives from discussion with faculty who are engaged in research and therefore knowledgeable about the “frontier of knowledge” in the discipline. For a faculty member to then properly guide and assist the student’s dissertation research, that faculty member must be an active researcher. Hence, the implementation of a doctoral program must be preceded by the assembling of faculty who are conducting publishable research in that discipline. UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA PROGRAM DUPLICATION STUDY Submitted by James H. Woodward November 1, 2011 p12] |

| NCA&T was 4th in Funding in Nanotechnology Research at North Carolina Universities with $11 Million Dollars between 2000-2005. UNC at Greensboro 10th among the 11 institutions conducted $45,000 dollars of Nanotechnology research between 2000 thru 2005. |
