NUE: Transforming Nanoscale Science and Engineering Undergraduate Education

在哥伦比亚大学，在黄齐伟博士的指导下，这项名为“NUE：转变纳米科学与工程本科教育”的工程学本科项目的目标是创建一个制度化的跨学科纳米技术本科项目，覆盖多个系，为目标~90(25%的队列)本科生服务。基于项目团队在石墨烯、纳米机械、纳米结构太阳能光伏和纳米电子学等领域的科学进展，将开发七个关于纳米科学和工程的实验室模块。这些实践模块将与纳米技术基础的理论数值模拟课程一起教授。这些课程将覆盖哥伦比亚大学和巴纳德学院(一所本科女子学院)，实验室模块还可以作为其他纳米级相关课程的独立实验。此外，该计划还将为本科生提供研究经验，以及在通用电气全球研究中心和布鲁克海文国家实验室功能纳米材料中心的暑期实习。所有课程材料将在网上免费提供，以供广泛传播。理论基础课程的讲课将被录制下来，并可供异步下载。

The goal of this NUE in Engineering program entitled, "NUE: Transforming Nanoscale Science and Engineering Undergraduate Education", at Columbia University, under the direction of Dr. Chee Wei Wong, is to create an institutionalized cross-disciplinary nanotechnology undergraduate program, reaching across multiple departments to serve a targeted ~90 (25% of cohort) undergraduates. Seven laboratory modules on nanoscale science and engineering will be developed, based on scientific advances by the project team such as in graphene, nanomechanics, nanostructured solar photovoltaics, and nanoelectronics. These hands-on modules will be taught in conjunction with a theoretical numerical simulations class on the foundations of nanotechnology.The classes will reach out across Columbia University and Barnard College (an undergraduate women's college), and the laboratory modules can further serve as stand-alone experiments in other nanoscale related curricula. In addition, research experiences for undergraduates will be provided under this program, as well as summer internships at GE Global Research and the Center for Functional Nanomaterials at Brookhaven National Laboratory. All course materials will be made freely available online for broad dissemination. Lectures in the theoretical foundations class will be recorded and made available for asynchronous download.
