The college is also playing a leadership role in developing a seamless nanotechnology educational program from the K-12 level through the baccalaureate degree.
Cross disciplinary in nature, the AAS-T degree combines elements of materials science, chemistry, biology and physics, electronics and engineering.
Students will be exposed to clean room procedures including an understanding and maintenance of nano/micro fabrication and characterization equipment.
The multidisciplinary design of this program will provide graduates with the skills to enter a wide range of materials-based industries.
