Undergraduate Curriculum Development in Micro-machine Science and Fabrication Technology

9354726亨宁本提案的具体目标是开发和主办一个夏季的微型机械加工科学和制造技术本科研讨会，并开发一个本科课程，题为科学和技术的微型机械涵盖相同的材料。 这两项活动将联合开展。 讲习班的对象是理工科的少数民族本科生。 其目的是为学生进入研究生学位课程做好准备，并通过从事快速发展的微机械工程，科学和技术领域的公司获得就业机会。 它特别旨在培养学生为这一领域做出领先的终身贡献。 与来自行业和企业的客座讲座和访问者建立联系将是讲习班和课程的一个重要组成部分。 夏季讲习班的主要好处是增加了少数民族学生进入科学和工程的人数。 该讲习班将进一步为达特茅斯学院工程科学新的本科生主修课程奠定基础，该课程题为“微型机器的科学与技术”。" 其好处将是促进微机械领域的发展和增长，方法是：培养熟练的本科生在研究生一级作出贡献，并与从事这一领域的工业公司合作;在本科生和该领域的领导人之间架起重要的桥梁;并向学术界传播这一努力的成果，领导和协助在其他机构类似的本科课程的复制。 *y

9354726 Henning The specific objectives of this proposal are to develop and host a summer Undergraduate Workshop in Micro-machining Science and Fabrication Technology, and to develop an undergraduate course entitled Science and Technology of Micro-machines covering the same material. These two activities will be developed jointly. The Workshop is targeted for minority undergraduate majors in science and engineering. Its purpose is to prepare students to enter graduate degree programs, and to gain employment by companies engaged in the rapidly evolving field of micro-machine engineering, science, and technology. It is particularly intended to prepare students to make leading, lifelong contributions to this field. Networking with guest lectures and visitor drawn from industry and academe will be an important component of the Workshop and course. The major benefit of the summer Workshop is to increase the number of minority students entering science and engineering. The Workshop will further serve as the foundation for a new undergraduate major course in Engineering Science at Dartmouth College, entitled "Science and Technology of Micro-Machines." Benefits will be to promote evolution and growth in the field of micro-machines by: preparing skilled undergraduates to make contributions at the graduate level, and with industrial firms engaged in this field; providing an important bridge between undergraduates, and leaders in the field; and disseminating results of this effort to the academic community, to lead in and assist the replication of similar undergraduate programs at other institutions. ***y
