The U.S. Department of Labor does not provide an employment outlook for nanomaterials scientists, but it does predict that job opportunities for chemists and materials scientists who conduct research and development in the physical, engineering, and life sciences will increase by 11.1 percent from 2023 through 2033. This is much faster than the average for all occupations. Chemical manufacturing industries require the expertise of nanomaterials scientists, and opportunities will be best for those with advanced degrees. Nanomaterials scientists will also be needed to help develop technologies and processes that reduce pollution. ResearchAndMarkets.com predicts that revenue in the U.S. nanotechnology will grow from $13 billion in 2023 to $35.36 billion by 2030. In addition, revenue is expected to continue to grow globally in the near future.
