Nanotechnology or in simple language-the science of the miniature, is fast emerging as one of the hottest career option available to Indian engineering graduates.

‘Nano’ in Greek means dwarf. The foundation of nanotechnology lies on the fact that when any matter is reduced to its nano dimension (10-9metre =1namometre) it starts showing very strong changes in its properties, this includes changes in Physical, Chemical, magnetic, optical, mechanical and electrical properties.

Atoms are the smallest particles forming anything on this planet. Their pattern of arrangement decides various properties demonstrated by any material.

Through extensive research in nanotechnology, now scientists are able to claim that if atoms in coal are reassembled, then diamonds can also be produced.

Such an analysis requires applications from varied fields including bioscience, medical science, environment, electronics, cosmetics, security and range of other subject areas.

The scope and application of nanotechnology is far-reaching and quite amazing too. Its s being said now that 21st century would be the century of nanotechnology as it would revolutionize every field.

From medicine to aerospace and from engineering to many industrial and technological areas, Nanotechnology would be the ideal platform to address all issues.

Nanotechnology is subject which primarily draws inputs from various subjects including Physics, Chemistry, Bio-informatics and Bio- technology, etc.
