How do you want to cover the breadth? Is it an engineering program? Then the science foundation will be weak. Is it a science program? Then get into physics and make sure you get exposed to chemistry and biology. So what's the point of this? And Waterloo, for that matter, has virtually no nano researchers, so how do they want to accomplish the teaching tasks? Beware of NanoTech undergraduate programs.

Great article. Our son is currently enrolled in the first year of this new NanoTech Undergrad Degree program at University of Waterloo that started in September 2005.

I’ve sent this link to the school.
