Question by ♣♠The Boss♠♣: Is it possible to do postgraduation in nanotechnology after an undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering?
I read in wikipedia that “At the smallest scales, mechanical engineering becomes nanotechnology…”. So, can I study Mechanical Engineering and then go in for nanotechnology?
Nanotechnology is my main interest. If there are other undergraduate courses after which I can do postgraduation in nanotechnology, please let me know. Thanks a lot!

I believe that you need to get a ‘graduate’ degree before you can do postgraduate work.
Check out the Materials Engineering programs at colleges/universities that you might be interested in attending graduate school at.
Check out the research activities of the Materials Engineering professors. (This should be listed on the department’s website). Find one (or more) professors in that department that seem to be working on nanotech. Contact them to find out more about your chances of doing such research as a grad (or postgrad) student/researcher.
Good luck.
