areas should receive priority
consideration as the City designates and
promotes land for economic development.
The NCA&TSU Farm site is one such
candidate. 7D.3 Promote economic
development through public/private

economic development agencies,

existing partnerships and initiatives in
this effort. Examples include:

University-related research and
development opportunities with UNCG
and NCA&TSU (building on the example
of the Nussbaum Center incubator
facility)[ One of their primary
tasks will be keeping tabs on research
at the two universities, in areas such
as engineering and sciences, that might
have commercial uses. They will look for
existing companies that could benefit
from that research and explore the
potential of using it to create start-up

manipulate matter at the atomic and molecular level (in the range of
1-100 nanometers) and to design, fabricate, and integrate nanoscale
structures, devices, and systems.

of matter. Nanoscience is by its very nature interdisciplinary. The
required education curriculum is also , by nature interdisciplinary
involving various educational curricula within Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Mathematics (Stem) |

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. |

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 degree. |

when across-town Liberal Art UNC Greensboro with

degrees? |

Mabe, Harold Martin, Rob Nelson CC Lisa Adamson. Hi
everyone , We scheduled to discuss the Joint Nanoscience
and Nanoengineering proposal Tuesday. I've attached the
latest version of the documents for your review. Perhaps
we can modify these to denote our agreement on all these
topics and then send to the campuses for final sign off
so that funds can be released. Clearly we we can
modify these to denote our agreement on all these topics
and then send to the campuses for final sign off ,
indicate the administration wrote the management
agreement. |

budget request part of a 19-page proposal
outlining plans for the nanotech program

would offer a doctorate in Nanoscience and

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

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. |

Armstrong 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. UNIVERSITY
