SKOKIE, IL–(Marketwire -02/02/12)- NanoProfessor®, a division of NanoInk®, Inc. focused on nanotechnology education, announced today a partnership with City Colleges of Chicago in which two City Colleges students will complete a specially designed “Introduction to Nanotechnology” course followed by a paid summer internship program working in the Skokie-based NanoProfessor labs.

It marks the first step by City Colleges to prepare students for careers in the growing field of nanotechnology. During the course of the program, the selected students will receive valuable hands-on training and experience with instrumentation used in the nanotech industry that could directly lead to a nano-focused job following their graduation.

“Our partnership with NanoProfessor will offer our students an unprecedented opportunity to build valuable technical skills and gain real-world experience in the growing nanotechnology industry,” said Cheryl L. Hyman, chancellor of City Colleges of Chicago. “The NanoProfessor internship is a great start and we look forward to expanding this and other key industry relationships that allow us to offer our students cutting-edge education to prepare them to launch careers in high-demand fields.”

The internship program is part of the recently announced Colleges to Careers program, which is a partnership between City Colleges of Chicago and industry leaders to fill the skills gap and ensure residents can win the jobs of today and tomorrow.

“We are very excited to partner with City Colleges of Chicago and help meet Mayor Emanuel's goal of matching education and training with 21st century careers,” said Dean Hart, chief commercial officer at NanoInk. “Moving forward, we hope to expand the program to reach even more students at City Colleges of Chicago.”

Mike Davis, associate vice chancellor for Science Technology Engineering and Math at City Colleges, has been a strong advocate for the tie between classroom experience and workplace skills. “Experiences like this are true game changers. Once you see what the larger world has to offer, classes have a whole new meaning.”

Significant investment in nanotechnology research over the past decade is providing innovations and breakthroughs in many industries including biotechnology, electronics, alternative energy and medicine. As these innovations evolve into commercially viable products, companies need a workforce with the knowledge and skill of working at the nanoscale in order to fully commercialize their products and become successful entities. Unfortunately, many companies go wanting as there is a significant global gap between the estimated 400,000 researchers in nanotechnology today and the 6 million nano-savvy workers projected by the National Science Foundation (NSF) to be needed globally by 2012. The need for nanoscience education for undergraduate students is not only growing but also immediate.

City Colleges students wishing to apply for the NanoProfessor internship need to submit a resume, cover letter, transcripts (official or unofficial), and a letter of recommendation from a professor by Friday, February 10. Students must be a current City Colleges student with a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher and have already completed Chemistry 201 or higher, Math 143 or higher, Physics 221 or higher and English 101.

SKOKIE, IL–(Marketwire -01/30/12)- NanoProfessor®, a division
of NanoInk®, Inc. focused on nanotechnology education, announced
today that Wheeling High School, which is a
recognized Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of
Education, took the first step to further advance its stellar
science education program by attending a three-day NanoCamp at
NanoProfessor's facilities. During the
three-day camp, faculty from Wheeling's science department
learned more about nanotechnology and gained hands-on
experience working with the cutting-edge nano-focused
instrumentation included within the NanoProfessor Program.

“Nanotechnology is breaking new ground in a several fields
including chemistry, biology, physics, material and
environmental sciences, engineering, and medicine,” said Dr.
Lazaro Lopez, principal of Wheeling High School. “We are
extremely pleased with NanoProfessor for providing this
opportunity for our teachers and are looking forward to working
with them to determine how the NanoProfessor Nanoscience Education
Program can be applied in our high school setting, with
the ultimate goal of providing our students with knowledge and
experience in nanotechnology beginning their freshman year.”

The three-day NanoCamp was held at NanoInk's corporate office in Skokie
from Thursday, January 19th to Monday, January 23rd. Attending
the NanoCamp were Frank Caballero, a biology teacher; Karen
Linzmeier, a chemistry teacher; and Lisa Del Muro, a physics
and environmental science teacher.

“We received an introduction to nanoscience and conducted
hands-on training with NanoInk's NLP 2000, which enabled us to
make structures at the nanoscale on a desktop system, something
that is usually only able to be done in a multi-million dollar
cleanroom,” said Frank Caballero. “We are very excited to take
what we've learned back to the classroom. Exposure to these
advances in science will interest students pursuing careers in
medicine, scientific research, engineering, and others.”

“We are honored to have Wheeling High School, a recognized
leader in high school science education, interested in working
with NanoProfessor to define how the NanoProfessor Nanoscience
Education Program can be implemented throughout a high school
science curriculum,” said Dean Hart, chief commercial officer
at NanoInk. “As nano-based products continue to emerge in the
marketplace, the demand for nano savvy employees will rise.
Progressive schools like Wheeling and visionary leaders like
Dr. Lazaro Lopez are going to help meet that workforce demand
by preparing their students for exciting careers in the growing
nanotechnology industry.”

The NanoProfessor Nanoscience Education Program aims to expand
hands-on nanotechnology education from the cleanrooms of
research-based universities to undergraduate classrooms. The
program alternates between classroom lectures and hands-on lab
work and includes a textbook authored by leading nanotechnology
experts, covering the topics of Nanotechnology Basics,
Nanophysics, Nanochemistry, Nanobiology, and Environmental,
Health, & Safety perspectives on nanotechnology.

In conducting the hands-on lab experiments, students learn the
fundamentals for building custom-engineered nanoscale
structures while working with state-of-the-art equipment
including NanoInk's NLP 2000 Desktop NanoFabrication System, a
student-friendly atomic force microscope (AFM), a best-of-class
fluorescence microscope, an advanced nanoparticle
characterization instrument, and various chemical and
biological materials used today within current and emerging
nanotechnology applications.

Wheeling High School is a public, four-year comprehensive high
school with a STEM focus that opened in 1964 and graduated its
first class in 1966. It serves Wheeling and sections of
Arlington Heights, Buffalo Grove, Mount Prospect, Northbrook,
and Prospect Heights and is one of the six schools in Township
High School District 214. In the fall of 2010, Wheeling High
School was officially rededicated as a STEM school and admitted
as an institutional member of the National Consortium for
Specialized Secondary Schools of Mathematics, Science, and
Technology — one of only three in Illinois. More information
