The goal of this Nanotechnology Undergraduate Education (NUE) in Engineering program at North Carolina State University (NCSU) entitled "NUE: Bottom-Up Meets Top-Down-An Integrated Undergraduate Nanotechnology Laboratory at NC State", under the direction of Dr. Yong Zhu, is to develop an undergraduate Nanotechnology laboratory course, consisting of 10 portable lab modules, in the College of Engineering at NCSU that will provide undergraduate students with hands-on experience in nanotechnology. The theme of this project is the integration of nanotechnology with microsystem technology, i.e., bottom-up synthesis meeting top-down fabrication. It will bridge the "pillars" of nanotechnology-nanomaterials, nanofabrication, nanoscale characterization and nanodevices. Over 500 undergraduate students at NCSU are expected to be affected by the new lab course and the integration of lab modules to existing nanotechnology courses. Overall this NUE project will encourage more U.S. students to pursue graduate study related to nanotechnology and to train a workforce for the emerging nanotechnology industry. Results of this project will be disseminated to local, regional, and national education communities, both during and after the project. Of note is that regionally the results and educational modules will be shared with K-12 educators at the NC Science Teachers Association and through NCSU's NanoDays.

这个纳米技术本科教育（NUE）在工程计划的目标在北卡罗来纳州州立大学（NCSU）题为“NUE：自下而上满足自上而下-一个综合的本科纳米技术实验室在北卡罗来纳州”，在博士的指导下，勇朱，是开发一个本科纳米技术实验室课程，包括10个便携式实验室模块，在工程学院在NCSU，将提供本科生在纳米技术的实践经验。 该项目的主题是纳米技术与微系统技术的整合，即，自下而上的合成和自上而下的制造。 它将连接纳米技术的“支柱”--纳米材料、纳米织物、纳米尺度表征和纳米器件。 预计NCSU的500多名本科生将受到新实验室课程和实验室模块与现有纳米技术课程整合的影响。总的来说，NUE项目将鼓励更多的美国学生攻读与纳米技术相关的研究生课程，并为新兴的纳米技术行业培训劳动力。该项目的成果将在项目期间和之后向地方、区域和国家教育界传播。值得注意的是，在区域范围内，结果和教育模块将在NC科学教师协会和NCSU的NanoDays与K-12教育工作者分享。
