Nano-technology Courses
Nano- technology courses offer knowledge and training on the development and modification of devices with atomic precision where the dimension of particles is less than 100 nanometers. It is an interdisciplinary subject that integrates the stud of Bio- informatics Bio- technology, Physics, Chemistry as well as other disciplines. There is a huge demand for students who have done Nano-Technology Courses in a good number of industries and laboratories in India and abroad. The scope and application of nanotechnology is wide ranging and therefore many institutes are now introducing degree courses in this field at the graduate and post graduate level.
Benefits:
Being an interdisciplinary subject, students with a degree in nanotechnology can find employment opportunities in a number of fields. Some of the areas where a nano-technologist can seek employment include the following:
Agriculture
Food and Beverage
Teaching
Genetics
Bio-technology
Space Research
Forensic Science
Environment industry
Medicine
Courses in Nano-technology
There are quite a number of institutes that offer Nano-Technology Courses in India and abroad. The M. Tech. in Nanotechnology is a post graduate degree courses that provides a thorough understanding on the core concepts of nanostructuring, characterization techniques and fabrication techniques for nano devices. Other courses include M. Tech. in Health Care Nanotechnology and Ph.D. in Nanotechnology.
Eligibility:
For admissions to M. Tech. (Nanotechnology) course candidates must have a B. Tech. / B. E. degree in Biotechnology, Chemical Engineering or Pharmaceutical Technology with a at least of 65% marks.
The institutes in India offering nano- technology courses are:
- Jawaharlal Nehru Center for Advanced Scientific Research, Bangalore
- Central Scientific Instruments Organization, Chandigarh
- Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore
- National Physical Laboratory, Delhi
- National Chemical Laboratory, Pune
- Defence Materials Store Research & Development Organization, Kanpur
- The IITs at Mumbai, Kanpur, Chennai, Guwahati and Delhi
- Amity Institute of Nano-technology, Noida
Scopes in India:
There are very good career prospects for students who have successfully completed their M.Tech in Nanotechnology from a reputed institute in India. Some of the industries in India that employ candidates with a nanotechnology degree include Health Industry research and consulting- pharmaceutical; agriculture; environment industries; academic institutes; government and private research institutes and food and beverage industries among others.
Scopes Abroad:
A range of opportunities await candidates who are willing to go outside India where they can work in the segments of nano -polymer and nano- medicine and as integration engineers also. Lot of research opportunities exist in the areas of nano-device, nano-packaging, nano-wires, nano-tools, nano- biotechnology and nano crystalline materials, nano photonics and nano porous materials to name a few. Nano Science and Technology Institute, with its centers at Switzerland, Cambridge and Massachusetts offer a lot of job opportunities. ASME nano- technology institute in New York also provides job opportunities to deserving candidates.
