Demand: Key Findings • The use of nano affects R&D jobs most, but also Mfg. & Corp. jobs to a lesser degree. • Some employers cautious about nano-specific degrees. Employers report that workers trained in traditional disciplines posses much of the core knowledge/skills needed to learn the basics of nanotechnology research on the job. John J.

Demand: Key Findings (Cont’d) However, interdisciplinary knowledge and key nano-related skill and knowledge are important, though specifics vary Workers need some understanding of core concepts including an understanding of the nanoscale (sub-atomic, atomic, molecular and supramolecular levels) and Quantum mechanics / quantum effects. Employers value interdisciplinary skills for nanotechnology workers. Key skill and knowledge requirements may vary from one industry to another. John J. Heldrich Center for Workforce Development 5
