Nanoscience is the study of matter, particles, and structures on the nanometer scale. A nanometer is one millionth of a millimeter. For reference, a sheet of paper is about 100,000 nanometers thick. Nanoengineering involves developing technologies that are miniature and efficient. This is a non-thesis master's program.
