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. |

message, April 13, 2010:
The bottom
line, however, is that we
need to submit a full
prospectus and need to do so
as soon as possible. This
request will be for approval
to initiate a new off-campus
site (South Campus) and to
initiate a new degree
program (MS in Nanoscience)
at that site. Contrary to
previous interpretations,
both represent substantive
changes.. Due to the
confusion, they are willing
to waive the requirement
that we do so 6 months in

in a timely way so that we
can accept students into

UNC 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 degrees. |

United States v.
Fordice, 505 U.S. 717 (1992) a
United States Supreme Court case
that resulted in an eight to one
ruling that the eight public
universities in Mississippi had not
sufficiently integrated and that the
state must take affirmative action
to change this under the Equal
Protection Clause and Title VI. This
is not a legal setting but context
comparison UNC BOG & SOCS
policies in light of the selected
text held in UNITED STATES v.
FORDICE, GOVERNOR OF MISSISSIPPI :
..If the State
perpetuates policies and practices
traceable to its prior de jure dual
system that continue to have
segregative effects ...implicit in
the court’s finding of “unnecessary”
duplication is the absence of any
educational justification ....and
such policies are without sound
educational justification and can be
practicably eliminated, implicated
the Equal Protection clause... ,
emphasis added.
Clearly
unnecessary duplication take place
when across-town Liberal Art UNC
Greensboro with programs in music
and nursing, requiring relevant
courses be taken at the School of

Thanks, Jim. I'll confer
with Alan about the Ph.D.
and whether anything is
needed. Jim Sadler

Jim,
I have attached a revised
version of the Request to
Establish for the
Professional Master of
Science in Nanoscience. I
have included the most
recent update of the JSNN
Management Agreement as well
as revised figures on
enrollment. I have also
provided additional
explanation to address
questions that were asked
during the disciplinary
committee review on
Wednesday. Please review and
let me know if additional
information or clarification
is needed.
Also, similar revisions are
needed for the Request to
Establish the Ph.D. in
Nanoscience. Should I send
the latest version of that
document to you as well?
Thank you.

| Historical black North Carolina A&T, as one of the state's two land grant institutions, has programs through the doctoral level. Its programs include engineering, arts and sciences, agricultural and environmental sciences, business and economics, education, nursing, technology, and graduates studies. “The expected roles of a land-grant institution, is teaching agriculture and engineering, and providing cooperative extension services” . |

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. |

Subject: Request
for
interpretation
of accuracy of
nanoscience
message, April
13, 2010:
The bottom line,
however, is that
we need to
submit a full
prospectus and
need to do so as
soon as
possible. This
request will be
for approval to
initiate a new
off-campus site
(South Campus)
and to initiate
a new degree
program (MS in
Nanoscience) at
that site. Contrary
to previous
interpretations,
both represent
substantive
changes..
Due to the
confusion, they
are willing to
waive the
requirement that
we do so 6
months in
advance and will
usher it though
the approval
process in a
timely way so
that we can
accept students
into UNCG's MS
in Nanoscience
program next
fall. |

| ”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.

Nanotechnology is Experimental
 NCA&T State University has been funded at an average rate of $3-5 million per year in the area of nanoscience and nanotechnology. Most of the research in nanoengineering is done in the Center for Advanced Materials and Smart Structures (CAMSS). Several Centers and projects are under CAMSS, including the NSF Center for Research Excellence in Science and Technology (CREST), the DoD Center for Nanoscience, Nanomaterials and Multifunctional Materials (CNN) for Homeland Security, the NSF Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center (NSEC), the NSF project on US/Europe Materials Collaboration: Self-Organized Nanostructured Thin Films for Catalysis, the NSF project on Nanoscale Interdisciplinary Research Teams (NIRT), the NSF Major Research Instrumentation for Nanoengineering Research, and the NSF Nanotechnology Undergraduate Education (NUE) program. CAMSS also facilitates many of the materials research activities of the NASA-National Institute for Aerospace (NIA). In addition, the Center for Composite Materials Research (CCMR) does research in nano-enhanced composite materials and the Army Center of Excellence for Battlefield Capability Enhancements (Flexible Displays) does research in material characterization and development of novel displays. |
