Outlook
The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) projects employment growth of 4 percent to 6 percent for nanosystems engineers through 2028. This is average employment growth compared to that of all other occupations, and there will be approximately 11,700 new job openings by that time. Opportunities will be best for applicants who have participated in co-op or internship programs while in college. In addition, engineers with a strong background in computer modeling and simulations will have an advantage in the job market.
