The overall goal of this proposal is to develop a prototype for a new type of collaborative education that meets broad and expanding needs in the areas of nanoscience and nanotechnology that will build on the research and educational strengths of the University of Washington (UW) and Pacific Northwest NationalLaboratory (PNNL) and their newly formed UW-PNNL Joint Institute for Nanoscience.This project is primarily targeted to speed up undergraduate and graduate entry into thenanotechnology field and enhance education and research by developing a new series ofinterdisciplinary nanotechnology courses taught via a combination of local and remoteinstruction. These courses will be taught by faculty at the University of Washington andby researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and be taken by students at bothlocations, as well as other locations around the state, region, and country. Some of thecourse offerings will be specifically oriented to making introductory interdisciplinarynanotechnology courses available to students at smaller undergraduate institutions. .Additional nanotechnology offerings will attract undergraduates into the nanotechnologyprogram and train future leaders for industry by providing hands-on research experienceand contact with faculty and researchers both within and outside of the UW. They willbroaden the nanotechnology curriculum and provide opportunities for students to exploreindividual research projects and to collaborate with each other and with faculty andresearchers at both locations. The program will contribute to the interdisciplinary PhDprogram in nanotechnology and other relevant sciences.The courses to be developed will increase distance learning curriculum offerings, while also providing a new model of teaching/learning that can be adopted in other disciplines and across other geographies to enhance research, education, and faculty/student collaboration.

这项建议的总体目标是开发一种新型合作教育的原型，以满足纳米科学和纳米技术领域广泛和不断扩大的需求，该原型将建立在华盛顿大学(UW)和太平洋西北国家实验室(PNNL)及其新成立的UW-PNNL纳米科学联合研究所的研究和教育优势的基础上。该项目的主要目标是加快本科生和研究生进入纳米技术领域的速度，并通过开发一系列新的跨学科纳米技术课程，通过本地和远程教学相结合的方式来加强教育和研究。这些课程将由华盛顿大学的教员和太平洋西北国家实验室的研究人员教授，这两个地点以及州、地区和国家的其他地点的学生都可以学习这些课程。其中一些课程将专门面向较小本科院校的学生提供跨学科的妇科技术入门课程。.额外的纳米技术课程将吸引本科生进入纳米技术课程，并通过提供实践研究经验以及与威斯康星大学内外的教职员工和研究人员联系，为行业培养未来的领导者。他们将拓宽纳米技术课程，并为学生提供机会探索个人研究项目，并相互合作，并与两个地点的教职员工和研究人员合作。该计划将有助于纳米技术和其他相关科学的跨学科博士计划。将开发的课程将增加远程学习课程，同时也提供一种新的教学/学习模式，可以在其他学科和其他地区采用，以加强研究、教育和师生合作。
