The proposal for this project was received in response to the Nanoscale Science and Engineering Education initiative, NSF 05-543, category NUE, and it is being funded through NSF's Division of Undergraduate Education. The project is expanding the existing reach of the college's Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (N&N) program beyond chemistry, biochemistry and physics to include environmental science and geology. An additional Special Topics in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology is being developed to go with the existing Introduction to Nanoscience and Nanotechnology course. Finally, interdisciplinary nanoscience research opportunities for undergraduates are being expanded, and a collaboration with the Arts Departments is being initiated.Some broader impacts of the proposed work come from the efforts that this NUE team are making to disseminate their curriculum developments broadly. In addition, the innovative collaboration with the Arts departments helps to educate and inspire students, teachers and the general community about the present and future of nanoscale science and technology.

该项目的提案是响应纳米尺度科学与工程教育计划，NSF 05-543， NUE类别，并由NSF本科教育部门资助。该项目正在将学院的纳米科学和纳米技术（N&amp；N）项目的现有范围从化学、生物化学和物理学扩展到环境科学和地质学。为了配合现有的纳米科学和纳米技术导论课程，正在开发一个额外的纳米科学和纳米技术专题。最后，本科生的跨学科纳米科学研究机会正在扩大，与艺术系的合作正在启动。所提议的工作的一些更广泛的影响来自于NUE团队为广泛传播他们的课程开发所做的努力。此外，与艺术系的创新合作有助于教育和激励学生、教师和一般社区关于纳米尺度科学和技术的现在和未来。
