ENGR 360 - Nanoscience and Nanoengineering

(Same as CHEM 360.) Prerequisite, CHEM 150. Students are introduced to the fundamental physical principles that lead to the specific phenomena and properties observed in nano-sized materials. The measurement and observation of “nano-phenomena” will be discussed, along with the potential utility of those unique properties in various applications. Modern use of nanomaterials in computing, electronics, optics, biotechnology, and environmental science will be presented and discussed in detail. Letter grade. (Offered spring semester.) 3 credits
