Why is Nanoscience and Nanoengineering Joint ?
   
UNC Board of Governors wasn't writing on a clean sheet paper with Nanotechnology.   NC A&T is well known in Nanotechnology globally and UNCG didn't make the state list of  Universities focused on Nanotechnology 
NC A&T is "well known in areas such as advanced materials, nanotechnology, computational science,  and says N.  Radhakrishnan, former  for research and economic development at N.C. A&T. The school also has significant strengths in other areas, including biotechnology, energy and the environment, information sciences and technology,   logistics and  transportation   development.  All  these  endeavors are aligned in eight  research clusters that bring  faculty  together across disciplines to   develop large research projects. These research clusters run in parallel with a number of multidisciplinary centers and institutes at N.C. A&T, which develop partnerships with private and corporate sponsors, educational institutions, and government agencies. This includes two US Army Centers of Excellence that are working on projects to enhance the capabilities of soldiers on the battlefield.  [3]

N.C. A&T Awarded NSF Engineering Research Center
Shena Crittendon,
Greensboro – North Carolina A&T State University has been awarded a grant for an Engineering Research Center (ERC) from the National Science Foundation (NSF).  Engineering Research Center grants represent major investments by NSF in partnership with industry to transform engineering research and education.  The centers aim to produce innovative technologies and engineering graduates to significantly enhance the competitiveness of the U.S. economy.  Award funding has been approved at $18 million for the initial five years, with a potential duration of 10 years.
The NSF ERC for Revolutionizing Metallic Biomaterials at A&T will conduct research in the areas of biomedical engineering and nano-bio applications and is in partnership with the Universities of Cincinnati and Pittsburgh. It also has a global technical partner in Germany’s Hannover School of Medicine and a global cultural and outreach partner in the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, India. California State University at Los Angeles will serve as an outreach partner in the USA. The ERC has partnerships with pre-college institutions in North Carolina to involve teachers and students in engineering; it has partnerships with a broad range of North Carolina organizations devoted to entrepreneurship and small business development. A&T’s ERC will be led by Dr. Jagannathan Sankar, professor of engineering. Dr. William Wagner from the University of Pittsburgh and Dr. Mark Schulz from the University of Cincinnati will serve as co-directors. Dr. Devdas Pai, professor of engineering at A&T, will lead educational aspects of the ERC. The ERC research will focus on three engineered systems: Craniofacial and Orthopedic Applications; Cardiovascular Devices; and Responsive Biosensors for Implants. The ERC will introduce new metallic materials, devices, and systems that have the potential to exhibit all the
necessary attributes of an ideal foundation or “scaffold” and that promise to completely transform the field of regenerative medicine. Similarly, innovative metallic materials will be introduced as stents in the treatment of cardiovascular problems. Nano sensors will be developed to study the efficacy of these devices as part of this research. More than eight companies will be associated with the ERC to provide input for the direction of research as well as a conduit to transfer the technology to the real world.   NC A&T will also start a new department of bioengineering in conjunction with this ERC. The department will

North Carolina A&T State University was selected as a host institution for Brazilian students participating in the Brazil Science without Borders program. The U.S. State Department reports that last year, President Obama and Brazilian President Rousseff, “set complementary goals for international education. President Obama announced the “100,000 Strong for the Americas” initiative to increase international study with a target of 100,000 students from Latin America and the Caribbean studying [in the] United States, and a reciprocal 100,000 students from the United States studying in the Latin American and the Caribbean region.”

Nanotechnology  & Biotechnology, etc.  Should have been NC A&T  Signature Program
   
In 2003-04, with the backbone of North Carolina's industrial economy Tobacco, Textiles, and Furniture in recession and appropriations for UNC-System taking an ever increasing multi-billion dollar bite out of state's coffers, North Carolina's Legislature thru House Bill 1264 (HB 1264) direct UNC-BOG to contract a private consulting firm that had experience in higher education to conduct a comprehensive study (HB 1264 Study) of the mission and educational program needs to ensure that the State's citizens are academically prepared and equipped for current job opportunities and jobs of the future in North Carolina's growing knowledge economy. HB 1264 Study was designed to
provide information and recommendations that would assist the General Assembly in setting priorities for funding to address the strategic higher education needs of the State. Staying a step ahead stated North Carolina A&T State University is well positioned to grow programs in some of the areas identified as emerging industries, citing Objective 2.2: Increase access to University intellectual property and resources (faculty, students, research. Create market-oriented university research clusters to better communicate research programs. [3]

Identified Emerging Markets [4]

 [4][ examples of research clusters created by NC A&T are the following:
  • Advanced Manufacturing
  • Advanced Materials, including Chemicals, Plastics and Nanotechnology
  • Biotechnology and Pharmacology
  • Computing, Software and the Internet
  • Design and Arts
  • Logistics and Distribution
  • Public Health
  • Biotechnology, Bio & Food Sciences
  • Advanced Materials & Nanotechnology
  • Computational Science & Engineering
  • Leadership & Community Development
  • Information Sciences & Technology
  • Transportation & Logistics
   
HB 1264(6) recognized the Historic significance of  Historical Minority   Institutions (HMI), ordered the University to formulate signature programs at them and not to diminish their role.  The study stated " “Signature programs” have been defined as those that are distinctive, that build on existing  strengths, that  advance the institution’s  profile, and that serve regional and/or state economic transformation  needs."
Expertise in nanotechnology may become a prerequisite for many scientists and engineers that support a wide variety
of industries, nano expertise among the North Carolina science and engineering workforce may soon become a competitive advantage issue for the state."
It is predicted that nanoscale science will change the nature of almost every human-made product this century. This field has great potential  applications in materials, medicine, electronics, optics, data storage, advanced manufacturing, environment, energy, and national security. Some specific applications include: lightweight new materials with greatly improved strength and wear characteristics; ultra dense computer memory; better drug design and better drug and gene delivery; sensing applications for agricultural, biological, chemical and homeland security applications; improved catalysts for the chemical and automotive industries; new materials to improve fuel economy and carbon dioxide emissions; and improved batteries and energy efficient processes for energy technologies. Nanoscale materials already find use in numerous pharmaceutical, catalytic, electronic, magnetic, optoelectronic, biomedical, cosmetic and energy applications. [ 9]

Biotechnology
" The joint school will build on the nanotechnology research activity established at nearby Wake Forest and at NCA&T. A decade-long leader in fusing nanotech and biotech, NC A&T last fall won an $18 million, five-year National Science Foundation grant to establish an Engineering Research Center for Revolutionizing Metallic Biomaterials. One research program of the ERC — the first to be led by an historically black college or university — is designed to aid children with birth defects and injured veterans through the development of implanted devices with magnesium alloys that can grow without refitting, then be absorbed into the body’s bloodstream with no side effects.  [2]

UNC BOG's 1994-2009 Long Range  Plans Excluded Historical Black Institutions from Doctoral Research - Extensive status and funding

There are 15 or more members on the Board of Governors from UNC-Chapel Hill and none from North Carolina A&T or other HBCUs within the system. clearly equality and respect has not been shown to A&T by the system. said Ms. Floyd-Moody NC A&T Board of Trustee member, as published in BOT Meeting Minutes 04-18-07.

In 2011 HMI North Carolina A&T for the 7th consecutive year  garnered the third largest  highest amount of sponsored research in 17 constituent UNC system  surpassed only by UNC flag ships UNC Chapel Hill and NC State yet the university was continuously designated Master Intensive, by UNC Board of governors for long range planning in years spanning 1994 thru 2009, notwithstanding  Institutional classification allegedly emphasized research and annual amount of federal research support received.     NC  A&T proactive research opportunities may have been inconsistent with  BOG's 1994-2009 long range  plans which  excluded all HBI from Doctoral Research- Extensive or Intensive status designating  NC A&T and NCCU as Master's Compressive.
 

UNC BOG Long Range Plan 2002-2007
Published at northcaroline.edu,  Greensboro Attorney Mr. Phillips chair of the Committee on Budget and Finance, presented the committee’s report, said the recommended 2005-07 Budget Request of the Board of Governors has been under development since the board approved the long-range plan in January.  The request identifies the programs and activities needed to carry out the strategic directions of the Board of Governors.  On behalf of the committee, Mr. Phillips moved that the 2005-07 Budget Request of the Board of Governors be approved and transmitted to the Governor and the General Assembly.   UNC Board of Governors 2005-07 Supplementary Budget request contained 21 million dollars for Transition of UNCC to Doctoral/Research Intensive Status which stated:
UNC Charlotte achieved Doctoral/Research Intensive Status under the Carnegie requirements during the 1999-2000 academic year. For the calculation of this request, UNCC’s faculty-student ratio and the mean faculty teaching salary have been established at the average for ECU and UNCG, the other UNC institutions classified as Doctoral/Research Intensive institutions. The adjustment in the faculty-student ratio results in an additional 37.74 FTE positions. As UNCC expands its doctoral programming, it must also augment its library resources through the purchase of additional books, periodicals, databases, and other materials important to sustaining doctoral- level programs. In addition, this funding would help expand the technological infrastructure, which is crucial to the research needs of doctoral students as well as to the increasingly multifaceted instructional delivery systems of today’s universities. The Board of Governors requests $10,584,757 for each year of the biennium to support this transition.   Transition of UNCC to Doctoral/Research Intensive Status   ($10,484,757 in 2005-06, $10,484,757 in 2006-07).
