How do they match: Nanosystems Engineers

  • Design, develop, or supervise the production of materials, devices, or systems of unique molecular or macromolecular composition, applying principles of nanoscale physics and electrical, chemical, or biological engineering.

  • Design nano-based manufacturing processes to minimize water, chemical, or energy use, as well as to reduce waste production.
  • Design nano-enabled products with reduced toxicity, increased durability, or improved energy efficiency.
  • Design nanoparticle catalysts to detect or remove chemical or other pollutants from water, soil, or air.
  • Design nanosystems with components such as nanocatalysts or nanofiltration devices to clean specific pollutants from hazardous waste sites.
  • Design or conduct tests of new nanotechnology products, processes, or systems.
  • Design or engineer nanomaterials, nanodevices, nano-enabled products, or nanosystems, using three-dimensional computer-aided design (CAD) software.
  • Coordinate or supervise the work of suppliers or vendors in the designing, building, or testing of nanosystem devices, such as lenses or probes.
  • Create designs or prototypes for nanosystem applications, such as biomedical delivery systems or atomic force microscopes.

  • Design alternative energy systems.
  • Design materials for industrial or commercial applications.
  • Design micro- or nano-scale materials, devices, or systems.
