NUE:USE-NanoMEMS: Undergraduate Science and Engineering Workforce Education in Nanotechnology and Microsystems

在詹姆斯·汉密尔顿博士的指导下，威斯康星大学普拉特维尔分校（UWP）名为“NUE：纳米技术和微系统的本科科学和工程劳动力教育（USE-NanoMEMS）”的工程纳米技术本科教育（NUE）项目将在UWP现有的纳米技术和微系统辅修课程的基础上，向学生、工人和公众提供纳米技术和微系统方面的教育，并提供纳米技术专业。在现有本科研究项目的基础上，学生将能够专注于纳米技术的基础和应用多学科研发，如应用于太阳能技术、替代能源和石墨烯器件和涂层技术，正如UWP正在开发的那样。所有未来的UWP工程（目前有2000多名学生，而且还在不断增长）将在学习工程入门和工程经济学课程的同时，接触到至少两个纳米技术模块。该计划也将提供给UWP的理工科和非工程专业的学生，特别是关于纳米技术的伦理、环境和社会方面的学生。USE-NanoMEMS将通过UWP的全系统协同研发纳米技术中心，进一步扩展到组成UWP系统的26个校区的17.5万名学生中。

This Nanotechnology Undergraduate Education (NUE) in Engineering program at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville (UWP)entitled "NUE: Undergraduate Science and Engineering Workforce Education in Nanotechnology and Microsystems (USE-NanoMEMS)", under the direction of Dr. James Hamilton, will build on the UWP existing minor in Nanotechnology and Microsystems to educate students, workers and the public in issues of Nanotechnology and Microsystems and provide a major in nanotechnology. Building on existing undergraduate research programs, the students will be able to focus on basic and applied multidisciplinary R&D in nanotechnology, as applied to solar technolgies,alternative energy and graphene device and coating technologies, as are being developed at UWP.All future UWP engineering (currently more than 2000 students and growing) will be exposed to at least two Nanotechnology modules while taking the required Introduction to Engineering and Engineering Economics courses. The program will also be available to science and non-engineering students at UWP, especially with respect to the ethical, environmental and societal aspects of nanotechnolgy. USE-NanoMEMS will further extend to many of the 175,000 students withing the 26 campuses that comprise the UW-System through the System-wide Nanotechnology Center for Collaborative R&D that is based at UWP.
