[extropy-chat] Career advice sought in nanotech/geneticengineering

Searching the web for "new nanotech centers" is a good way to go. I'm not
sure what's in the midwest...I'm fairly sure that Phoenix, AZ is doing
something nanotechish and expensive, and I know Rice, Houston, TX is well
along the path to a full blown nanotechnology institute.

Thanks for your speedy response, Brett.  There is a local medical college I
have in mind for tissue engineering, however, I am stumped when it comes to
programs that teach nanotech.  I have not seen that listed.  If you know of
any programs in the Midwest (WI), please let me know.  I have been reading
much on my own but at some point I'll need help and access to the necessary
microscopes and other expensive equipment.
Best,
Joe
Anybody that decides to be a student in the areas that are leading edge
in ones day is going to find they are empowering themselves in a number
of dimensions.

Depending on your personal circumstances you might want to consider
part time study. You might also want to consider whether you want to
acquire knowledge only (that can sometimes be done faster) or whether
you want to have a certificate saying you have the knowledge as well.
