40. Nanotechnology Workforce Initiative for Houston - NWIH2007 Micro Nano Breakthrough Conference – Portland, Oregon 2007 E.C. Teague NNCO What Is Nanotechnology? New ISO Working Definition: Nanotechnology is the application of scientific knowledge to the control and use of matter at the nanoscale, where size related phenomena and processes may occur. Research and technology development aimed to understand and control matter at dimensions of approximately 1 - 100 nanometer – the nanoscale Ability to understand, create, and use structures, devices and systems that have fundamentally new properties and functions because of their nanoscale structure Ability to image, measure, model, and manipulate matter on the nanoscale to exploit those properties and functions Ability to integrate those properties and functions into systems spanning from nano- to micro- to macro-scopic scales “Anything is nanotechnology that, under the rubric of nanotechnology,makes money.” Rice Alliance Technology Entrepreneurship Workshop, October 2002 Nanoarea Electron Diffraction of DW Carbon Nanotube – Zuo, et.al Corral of Fe Atoms – D.

52. Proven research ability

54. Ability to develop curriculumConceive Develop Commercialize Deliver

55. Nanotechnology Workforce Gap We are now producing Masters- and Ph.D-level talent in Nanotechnology We will continue to need that type of talent, but the drive to commercialize will be fueled by technicians Why? It takes a tremendous number of lab hours to take Ph.D concepts and develop products and scale-up processes from them The conclusion is simple: without technicians, we will not reach our economic goals in Nanotechnology

56. How do we close the workforce gap? Start with the employers! What do you need now? What are you going to need in five years? Retrain existing employees? Hire new talent? What levels? Technician’s Certification AA BS, MS, Ph.D What areas? Nanomaterials and Characterization Nanoelectronics Nanophotonics?

57. What: build our workforce to match the new jobs in emerging technology Nanomaterials: producing science and engineering jobs today Schlumberger needs to hire 6,000 engineers in next 2-3 years; many in Houston Lockheed Martin ramping up to produce next-generation space vehicles Both Energy and Aerospace now using nanomaterials Lockheed Martin and Schlumberger looking for Nano-educated technical workers NOW: if they can’t find the workers in Texas, they will be forced to hire them from the outside or move the jobs out of Texas. We have a lead in Nano research and early commercialization: We need Nano-workers so we can take that lead into mainstream industry
