What demand and prosperity will there be for the field of nanotechnology over the next 40 years? I just completed my first semester of college, and I am seriously considering this. I am highly interested in the medical field as well.

Oh there'll be demand.

But 'nanotechnology' is just a buzzword, which is being applied to a broad range of subjects. I wouldn't recommend anyone to take a program named 'nanotechnology'.

Study chemistry or solid-state physics, etc. Persue what you're interested in, instead of worrying if you can apply a 'nano' label to it or not.
