Nanotechnology

<p>I didn't want to start another "versus" thread, but I had a question comparing Stanford and Harvard. I am very interested in nanotechnology and, as a prospective undergraduate student, have narrowed my search to schools with NNIN facilities. My top 2 (unless someone convinces me otherwise) are Harvard and Stanford. Harvard has the Center for Nanoscale Systems while Stanford has the Stanford Nanofabrication Facility. So, my first question is: Does anyone have any information as to the respective merit of these two facilities?</p>

<p>My second series of questions is more curriculum-based. It is likely, if I decide to pursue a career in nanotechnology, that I would study in Harvard's "Physics and Chemistry" Concentration. Do you all have any recommendations relating to this program? Or any other programs I ought to look into at Harvard?</p>

<p>At Stanford, it is more likely that I'd study something more unique. For instance, I am intrigued by their Symbolic Systems program. I have also looked into their MS&E Department. Do you all have any recommendations for departments to look into at Stanford?</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>
