Flinders University - Bedford Park Campus
In the 20th century, scientists discovered atomic structure and the quantum theory that explains how atoms and molecules work. In the 21st century, nanotechnology lets us see and feel atoms and actually push them around. There are projects under way to build nanochips that interface with the human eye to help restore sight and miniature machines that need no lubricants. Nanotechnology impacts upon all aspects of industry including solar energy, medicine, aerospace, environmental remediation, telecommunications and computing. Whatever the environment, commercial or research, employment opportunities are at the cutting edge of technology. Students will graduate ready to start working in a variety of scientific professions and to play a leading role in the future as nanotechnology grows, matures and reveals its full potential.
Graduates have found employment in research-based careers in the Defence, Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO), universities (within Australia and internationally) and the CSIRO. Graduates who wish to work in a commercial environment will find opportunities in companies such as Carl Zeiss, AMBRI in Sydney and Advanced Nano powders Technology in Perth. Examples of potential occupations include Nano systems scientist, nanomaterials business manager, nanomaterial scientist, nanofabrication technologist, laboratory technician, research officer, scientist, scientific support officer and patent examiner.
