NUE: Sophomore Course and Ancillaries in Nanoscience (SCAN)

这个纳米技术在本科教育（NUE）奖，由材料研究部，数学科学部和化学部资助，支持博士。西部，罗斯-休曼理工学院，博士T. F。乔治，美国威斯康星州史蒂文斯点，和G博士。张，印第安纳州州立大学，创建一个讲师级的课程，介绍技术学生到纳米科学领域。 该课程侧重于在原子水平上创建的材料和设备的新兴应用，以及基本属性。 沿着介绍了纳米级制造的工程方面，以及用于研究可能只有几个原子大小的实体的实验技术。教育工作者和研究人员团队还为课程开发了教科书和电子辅助包。 与纳米科学相关的教学材料的电子档案包括图像，模拟和计算机程序，以增强可视化，并通过国家科学，技术，工程和数学教育数字图书馆提供。

This Nanotechnology in Undergraduate Education (NUE) award, funded by the Division of Materials Research, the Division of Mathematical Sciences and the Division of Chemistry, supports Dr. A.B. Western, Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, Dr. T.F. George, U. of Wisconsin-Stevens Point, and Dr. G. Zhang, Indiana State U., to create a sophomore-level course that introduces technical students to the field of nanoscience. The course focuses on emerging applications of materials and devices created on the atomic level, as well as fundamental properties. Engineering aspects of manufacturing on the nanoscale are introduced along with experimental techniques used to study entities that may be only a few atoms in size.The team of educators and researchers also develops a textbook and electronic ancillary package for the course. The electronic archive of instructional materials related to nanoscience includes images, simulations, and computer programs to enhance visualization and is made available through the National Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Educational Digital Library.
