Greensboro
City's Greensboro
Connections 2025 Comprehensive Plan was
adopted May
2003. A key principle of
the Comprehensive Plan is to promote
economic development in historically
under-served parts of the City such
as East Greensboro. Properties in
these areas should receive priority
consideration as the City designates
and promotes land for economic
development. The NCA&TSU Farm site
is one such candidate. 7D.3 Promote
economic development through
public/private partnerships to
include government, economic
development agencies, educational
and health care institutions, and
businesses. Build on existing
partnerships and initiatives in this
effort. Examples include:
|
|
University-related research and
development opportunities with UNCG
and NCA&TSU (building on the
example of the Nussbaum Center
incubator facility)[ One of
their primary tasks will be keeping
tabs on research at the two
universities, in areas such as
engineering and sciences, that might
have commercial uses. They will look
for existing companies that could
benefit from that research and
explore the potential of using it to
create start-up businesses.

Almost all of the occupations which will be

engineering with a broad, interdisciplinary and

require an understanding not only of electrical,

Rebecca Adams to (SACS)
Tom Benberg: Sarah
Armstrong Subject:
Request for
interpretation of
accuracy of nanoscience
message, April 13, 2010:
The bottom line,
however, is that we need
to submit a full
prospectus and need to
do so as soon as
possible. This request
will be for approval to
initiate a new
off-campus site (South
Campus) and to initiate
a new degree program (MS
in Nanoscience) at that
site. Contrary to
previous
interpretations, both
represent substantive
changes.. Due to the
confusion, they are
willing to waive the
requirement that we do
so 6 months in advance
and will usher it though
the approval process in
a timely way so that we
can accept students into
UNCG's MS in Nanoscience
program next fall. |

”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

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

projects
are
under
CAMSS,
including
the NSF

(CREST),
the DoD

Unambiguous North

University was the
better host base on :
(1)
number, location, and
mode of delivery of
existing programs,
(2) the relation of the
program to the
distinctiveness of the
campus and the mission
of the campus,
(3) the demand for the
program in the locality,
region, or State as a
whole,
(4) whether the program
would create unnecessary
duplication,
(5) employment
opportunities for
program graduates,
(6) faculty quality and
number for offering the
program,
(7) the availability of
campus resources
(library, space, labs,
equipment, external
funding, and the like)
to support the program,
(8) the number and
quality of lower-level
and cognate programs for
supporting the new
program,
(9) impact of program
decision on access and
affordability,
(10) the expected
quality of the proposed
degree program, |
