RE: Is nanotechnology a promising field in Chemical Engineering?
My alma mater has a "nanotechnology engineering" program, and I know that these students have had difficulty finding co-op work term employment ever since the program was established. A Bachelors' level program is too short to be truly interdisciplinary. I can see a chem eng bachelors' grad with a masters or PhD in a nano-related field having much better prospects for the limited number of specialist positions available in the field. I suspect that creating this program was a "build it and they will come" kind of thing.
