Symposium on Undergraduate Nano-Education
Addressing the Challenges of Nanoscale Science & Engineering Education
August 5-8, 2009, SUNY - Albany
The National
Center for Learning & Teaching in Nanoscale Science and Engineering (NCLT) partnered with the
College of Nanoscale Science & Engineering (CNSE) at SUNY-Albany to sponsor a “Symposium on
Undergraduate Nano-Education.” The symposium was held at SUNY-Albany from August 5th through
8, 2009. The symposium was devoted to the discussion of advances in nanoscale science and engineering
(NSE) education at the post-secondary level.
Highlights of the event included an address by U.S. Representative Paul Tonko that focused on the critical importance of building strong nanotechnology educational curricula and outreach programs, as well as a public discussion entitled "The Grand Challenges of Nano Education: Why Nano Ed Matters." Speakers included Tom Sonderman, vice president of manufacturing systems and technology for GlobalFoundries.
