Abstract:	奈米科技終於從難以摸觸的神秘境界浮現在我們的周遭、社會、及工業界，令我們措手不及因為專才與技工都不足。本文針對如何從工程教育的角度有效培育奈米科技人才以便帶動這一波世紀性的科技革命。我們要指出耐米科技是一個很特殊的領域，它與量子物理、分子化學、生物科技、材料科學、與資訊科技等先前科技，甚至一些形而上或人文領域如政治、經濟、文化、與教育等都有多元連接和跨領域互連。到底這個新的科技能否繼續開創新經濟或變成泡沬化？或者也可能是一場騙局或恐慌？我們若要正面的有利結局，工程教育必須及時積極培育一大批全球性高程度的人力以便領導這一波世紀性革命使其達到新的价值領悟境界並創造有益的新經濟。相反地若不行動，必將不可思議並懊悔不已。工程教育必須建立一套高超的理念和有效的策略，籍此整合物質世界與生命世界。因此，讓我們面對挑戰做一個勝利者。 Nanotechnology has finally emerged out of the intangible horizon into our community, society, and industry regardless of the unprepared workforce to back up the drive. This paper, examines the ideology of this new technology. We found its multidisciplinary connections and interdisciplinary interactions with other preceding sciences and technologies-quantum physics, molecular chemistry, biotechnology, materials science, and information technology, and also with other meta-disciplines-politics, culture, economy, and education. We confront such questions as: Will this new technology continue to flourish and create new economy or become bubbles? Will it bring hype or fear? To bring about positive answers, engineering education should play the key role of preparing a global workforce qualified in nanotech so as to lead this revolution of the century to a new enlightenment and profitable economy. The alternative will be unthinkable. Behind this challenging task, a profound ideology enforced with effective strategies which link across both the materials world and the living world should be the driving power and guide.
