NSERC CREATE Training program in Nanoscience and Nanotechology

我们提出了一个纳米科学和纳米技术的培训计划，针对本科生、研究生和博士后，强调在纳米尺度上电子学和光子学的集成。该计划旨在为学员提供适合学术和工业职业的技能，并在加拿大研究和开发社区建立能力。在这里开发的技能将为我们的学员提供必要的工具来构思、设计、制造、测试和销售具有增强功能的下一代设备和系统。此外，他们将获得专业发展技能，这将使他们能够在加拿大工业中找到工作。在发展我们的项目时，我们提出了一个三管齐下的策略：a)通过相关课程进行培训；b)在我们参与的教师的监督下进行以研究为导向的项目培训；c)专业发展课程，使学生能够过渡到行业。这种高级培训将有机会让学生参加工业实习和/或国际研究交流访问。

We propose a training program in nanoscience and nanotechnology aimed at undergraduate and graduate students and postdoctoral fellows which emphasizes the integration of electronics and photonics at the nanoscale. The program is designed to provide the trainees with skills suitable for both academic and industrial careers and to build capacity within the Canadian research and development communities. The skills developed here will provide our trainees with necessary tools to conceive, design, fabricate, test, and market next-generation devices and systems with enhanced functionality. In addition they will receive professional development skills which will equip them to find employment in Canadian industry. In developing our program we are proposing a three-pronged strategy by a) Training through relevant courses, b) Training through research-oriented projects under the supervision of our participating faculty members, and c) Professional development courses to allow students to transition to industry. This advanced training will be complemented by opportunities for students to participate in industrial placements and / or international research exchange visits.
