This Nanotechnology in Undergraduate Education (NUE) award to Professors Delana A. Nivens, Will E. Lynch and Ronald R. Williams of Armstrong Atlantic State University provides for the introduction of nanotechnology in "vertical threads" throughout the university's chemistry curriculum. Synthesis, spectroscopy and adaptation of nanomaterials will be incorporated into the laboratories of a variety of chemistry courses from freshman to senior level. Using vertical threads, general chemistry students will be introduced to the vast, novel and interdisciplinary nature of nanomaterials, thereby maximizing the impact on both chemistry majors and other science majors. Vertical threads allow students to revisit the same nanomaterials with an expanding variety of applications. The proposal for this award was received in response to the Nanoscale Science and Engineering program announcement, NSF 02-148, category NUE. The focus is on developing laboratories that will introduce the field of nanoscience to undergraduate students. The project is expected to have a positive impact on educating female and minority students and also on students from rural communities.

这项授予阿姆斯特朗大西洋州立大学的Delana A. Nivens、Will E. Lynch和Ronald R. Williams教授的纳米技术本科教育（NUE）奖旨在将纳米技术引入大学化学课程的“垂直线”中。纳米材料的合成、光谱学和自适应将被纳入从大一到大四的各种化学课程的实验室。利用垂直线，普通化学学生将被介绍到纳米材料的广阔，新颖和跨学科的性质，从而最大限度地影响化学专业和其他科学专业。垂直线允许学生重新审视相同的纳米材料，并扩展各种应用。该奖项的提案是根据纳米尺度科学与工程项目公告（NSF 02-148，类别NUE）收到的。重点是发展实验室，向本科生介绍纳米科学领域。预计该项目将对女性和少数民族学生以及农村社区学生的教育产生积极影响。
