Course Title:
Nanotechnology in Engineering
Course Description:
Explores a wide range of new technologies based on, or influenced by, breakthroughs in nanoscience. Nanotechnology, the refinement of functional properties of materials, devices, or systems at least one dimension smaller than 100 nm with a general goal of engineering new or enhanced macroscopic properties from nanostructure or nanoscale materials and components, has revolutionized science and its impact on society. Nanotechnologies include, but are not limited to, spintronics, quantum computing, carbon nanotube electronics, nanoparticle cancer remediation strategies, biomolecular electronics, and nanomachines. Through review of the scientific literature, classroom lecture, seminars by international leaders of nanotechnology, and student team and individual projects, the student has an opportunity to develop an in-depth understanding of one area of interest in this field.
