| A three-credit senior elective/graduate course is scheduled for fall 2005. The course will be offered jointly between the three universities, with material delivered face-to-face and distance learning. The course description is:
"The objective is to provide an interdisciplinary nanomanufacturing course for a student population with diverse scientific and engineering backgrounds. Co-taught by faculty from Northeastern University, the University of Massachusetts Lowell, and the University of New Hampshire, this course is offered as a separate course number at each university. The course will be team taught in segments that are focused in four areas: 1) directed self assembly, 2) advanced micro and nano fabrication techniques, 3) nanoscale polymer and composite processing and 4) environmentally benign nanomanufacturing and worker safety. Each segment will include fundamental concepts in addition to more advanced topics in nanomanfacturing."
