to initiate a new degree program (MS in Nanoscience) at that site. Contrary
to previous interpretations, both represent substantive changes..

UNC Policy for Interdisciplinary
Degree
An Interdisciplinary Degree program involves two or more
academic units, either on the same or
different campuses in a formal agreement to offer a
program of study drawing on two or more disciplines that
will result in a student being awarded an
interdisciplinary degree. If more than one campus is
involved in offering the program it would also be a
joint degree. |

Contractual Agreement –
typically is one in which an institution enters an
agreement for receipt of courses/programs or portions of
courses or programs (i.e., clinical training
internships, etc.) delivered by another institution or
service provider. [SUBSTANTIVE CHANGE FOR SACSCOC

Unambiguous a degree in
Chemistry is not a

Doctor of Philosophy in Nanoscience
The PhD in Nanoscience requires a minimum of
60 hours and is designed to prepare students
to take positions in industrial,
governmental, or academic research settings
by providing a solid background in
Nanoscience theory and experimental
techniques through course work and
dissertation research. |

The PhD program will include
a core interdisciplinary curriculum that
provides a thorough background in the
principles and tools required for a research
career in Nanoscience. Program will
include a core interdisciplinary curriculum
that provides a thorough background in the
principles and tools required for a research

Admission to the program will required and
undergraduate or maser's degree in an
appropriate science or engineering
disciplined as well as acceptable test

 ”The
addition of a doctoral program is not an easy or simple
extension of the master’s program. Unlike most master’s
programs, a doctoral program is research-based. While
doctoral program requirements routinely include
additional course work, the central program requirement
is the dissertation. The topic for the dissertation
normally derives from discussion with faculty who are
engaged in research and therefore knowledgeable about
the “frontier of knowledge” in the discipline. For a
faculty member to then properly guide and assist the
student’s dissertation research, that faculty member
must be an active researcher. Hence, the
implementation of a doctoral program must be preceded by
the assembling of faculty who are conducting publishable
research in that discipline. UNIVERSITY
OF NORTH CAROLINA PROGRAM DUPLICATION STUDY Submitted by
James H. Woodward November 1, 2011 p12]
NCA&T was 4th in Funding in
Nanotechnology Research at North Carolina Universities
with $11 Million Dollars between 2000-2005. UNC at
Greensboro 10th among the 11 institutions conducted
$45,000 dollars of Nanotechnology research between 2000
thru 2005.

Nanotechnology is Experimental
 NCA&T
State University has been funded at an average rate of
$3-5 million per year in the area of nanoscience and
nanotechnology. Most of the research in nanoengineering
is done in the Center for Advanced Materials and Smart
Structures (CAMSS). Several Centers and projects are
under CAMSS, including the NSF Center for Research
Excellence in Science and Technology (CREST), the DoD
Center for Nanoscience, Nanomaterials and
Multifunctional Materials (CNN) for Homeland Security,
the NSF Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center (NSEC),
the NSF project on US/Europe Materials Collaboration:
Self-Organized Nanostructured Thin Films for Catalysis,
the NSF project on Nanoscale Interdisciplinary Research
Teams (NIRT), the NSF Major Research Instrumentation for
Nanoengineering Research, and the NSF Nanotechnology
Undergraduate Education (NUE) program. CAMSS also
facilitates many of the materials research activities of
the NASA-National Institute for Aerospace (NIA). In
addition, the Center for Composite Materials Research (CCMR)
does research in nano-enhanced composite materials and
the Army Center of Excellence for Battlefield Capability
Enhancements (Flexible Displays) does research in
material characterization and development of novel
displays. |

Erskine Bowles UNC
General Administration categorizing Nanoscience
Ph.D. as a Physical Science; examining UNC

Science Ph.D. programs
determined: |
|

UNC
Greensboro offer no
similar Ph.D. programs.

Development subsection (B) related to
degree authorization Ms. Joni Worthington
(UNC-GA) Vice President for Communications
UNC General Administration responded to a
public record request for a UNCG Chancellor
signed request to plan and establish a PhD
in Nanoscience said: “Dr. Alan Mabe in
his capacity as Senior Vice President for
Academic Affairs determined:
· UNCG
was not required to submit a new request to
plan a Ph.D. in Nanoscience. The joint
proposal submitted by UNCG and NCA&T was
deemed sufficient for the campus to move
forward with planning a stand-alone degree
program.
· UNCG
was not required to submit a new request to
establish a Ph.D. in Nanoscience. The joint
request submitted by UNCG and NCA&T, which
had already been recommended for approval by
the UNC Graduate Council, was deemed
sufficient for Board consideration. The
Board of Governors
concurred with that determination in
approving the establishment of the program.
