nackcentersm.pngNanotechnology Applications & Career Knowledge


These workshops are intended for post-secondary faculty and administrators who are interested in starting or enhancing nanotechnology programs. The workshops go over NACK’s set of six Undergraduate Level Nanotechnology Courses including classroom presentations and corresponding lab activities. The objective of these workshops is to train faculty in effectively delivering these nanotechnology courses. The six course suite includes:
ESC 211   Materials, Safety, and Equipment Overview
ESC 212   Basic Nanotechnology Processes
ESC 213   Materials in Nanotechnology
ESC 214   Patterning for Nanotechnology
ESC 215   Materials Modification for Nanotechnology Applications
ESC 216   Characterization, Testing of Nanotechnology Structures and Materials
Join us for one or all of these Train the Trainer Workshops for faculty and administrators who offer, or intend to offer, courses based on the NACK nanotechnology suite. Expenses for lodging and travel will be reimbursed for accepted applicants.
