The “science of the small” has long been a staple of popular culture—since before the home-lab misadventures of Honey, I Shrunk the Kids to the fictionalized nanoscience of Terminator 2 to whatever will be the next Hollywood blockbuster. Nanotechnology involves the control of matter in the nanometer-scale dimensions, with a broad range of applications such as energy, medicine, information technology, space and aeronautics, and consumer goods.
The interdisciplinary field of nanotechnology is the embodiment of each letter of the “STEM” acronym. Having a workforce trained in science, technology, engineering and mathematics fields is key to our nation’s future capacity for global competition and collaboration.
