USA - Minnesota - Rosemont - Dakota County Technical College - Nanoscience Technology (A.A.S. Degree)

• Request Information

DCTC offers an A.A.S. degree in Nanoscience Technology to prepare students for employment in Minnesota’s nanobio/agricultural, nanomaterials, and nanoelectronics careers.This program is offered through a partnership with the University of Minnesota.

Students take their first three semesters at DCTC and the final capstone semester at the U of M in their Nanofabrication Center, Characterization Facility, and Particle Technology Labs.

Nature of Work
The ultra small scale of nanoscience allows individuals working in the field to apply basic sciences, chemistry, physics, and biology to the nanoscience world and enter the job market in a variety of areas. Nanoscience technicians work in research, production, marketing, and business environments where nano scale is a part of the industry.

Student Outcomes

1. Students will have the knowledge to explain basic scientific principles related to the behavior of matter at the atomic level in chemical, biological, and mechanical systems.
2. Students will demonstrate proficiency in operating state-of-the-art nanofabrication equipment.
3. Students will know how to apply the concepts of the nanofabrication process related to advanced electronic and the latest nano-level manufacturing technologies.
4. Students will demonstrate the skills necessary to function as a technician in the field of nanofabrication.
5. Students will demonstrate a thorough understanding of the entire nanofabrication process as it applies to biological, chemical and electronics manufacturing technologies.
