UCB engineering vs. Cornell engineering for nanotechnology?

College Search & Selection
1

<p>I want to study materials, electrical, or mechanical engineering so that I can go into the nanotechnology field after I graduate. First of all, are these good majors to pursue for nanotechnology? And secondly, would I be better off attending UC Berkeley or Cornell?
Thanks for any help!</p>

<p>I think Cornell has the best interdisciplinary nano program in the country. They have a new building dedicated to the field, Duffield Hall.</p>

<p>Berkeley! </p>

<p>Berkeley students are creative in explaining nanotech:

<p>also, Engineering just completed a new building that has research space dedicated to nanotechnology:
