Is it possible to do postgraduation in nanotechnology after an undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering?

♣♠The Boss♠♣ asked:


I read in wikipedia that “At the smallest scales, mechanical engineering becomes nanotechnology…”. So, can I study Mechanical Engineering and then go in for nanotechnology?

Nanotechnology is my main interest. If there are other undergraduate courses after which I can do postgraduation in nanotechnology, please let me know. Thanks a lot!

Introduction to Nanotechnology


How does Nanotechnology or Drugs in General find specific Target Areas?

laptoprabbit asked:


I’m wondering, for example, you take medicine for a painful kidney (this is just for instance). How does the medicine know exactly where to go? Let’s take this a step further and pretend we are dealing with nanotechnology. How would the nanos (basically, really small particles) know where to deposit the drugs to the kidney? Is there some sort of chemical reaction going on, and if so, how and what? Thanks, and please tell me the source. :)

Nanotechnology?

bluefire61 asked:


I’ve been wondering what nanotechnology is, what it does, and what it accomplishes. The only displays of nanotech that I have seen have been in comic books and sci-fi movies/tv shows. Does it really form on it’s own to make weapons and other appliances? Can it respond on its own or does someone need to control it? What can it do and accomplish? Is it stable or not? Has the technology been approved by the government and/or perfected?

Will a bachelors in nanotechnology and masters in chemical engineering allow me to work as a chemical engineer?

Rob asked:


Ive done 2 years of a 4 year nanotechnology course. If I do a masters in chemical engineering which is 1.5 years long, will I be able to work as a chemical engineer afterwards? Or should i just change my course to chemical engineering now and almost start from scratch?

What are the related courses to nanotechnology?

pavan s asked:


i finished my high school and i want a career in nanotechnology.But there is no bachelor’s degree in nanotech.
so could anyone tell me the most closely related bachelor degrees available that i can take up to have a career in nanotech.
