Engineering - Electrical (55)This project is exposing undergraduate students to the rapidly emerging field of micro/nanofluidics and providing them with an integrated learning experience that cuts across traditional course boundaries. Topics include pressure driven microflows, electroosmotic microflows, mixing and diffusion on micro- and nanoscale, fabrication of micro/nanochannels, device packaging, and fluorescent flow characterization. This course builds on a successful pilot project where a collaborative team of undergraduate senior students followed a typical iterative microsystem design cycle from concept creation to simulation, fabrication, and testing. The laboratory tutorials are animated by video screen capture, narrated by the instructor, and distributed in CD/DVD format. Evaluation is performed as a joint effort between the project and evaluation teams to assess the process and identify progress made in the project. Two other institutions are actively involved in the course and laboratory development to facilitate future adoption of the materials by their respective institutions.

工程-电气（55）本项目使本科生接触到快速发展的微/纳米流体领域，并为他们提供跨越传统课程界限的综合学习体验。主题包括压力驱动的微流，电渗透微流，微纳米尺度上的混合和扩散，微/纳米通道的制造，器件封装和荧光流表征。本课程建立在一个成功的试点项目上，在这个项目中，一个由本科高年级学生组成的协作团队遵循了一个典型的迭代微系统设计周期，从概念创建到模拟、制造和测试。实验教程采用视频截屏动画，由讲师讲解，并以CD/DVD格式发行。评估是作为项目和评估团队之间的共同努力来评估过程并确定项目中取得的进展。另外两所院校正积极参与课程和实验室的发展，以促进各自院校将来采用这些材料。
