The goal is to generate new interest in nanoscience and nanotechnology among engineering and science students and prepare them with the knowledge and skills necessary for the next generation of graduates to compete in the global market and contribute to the nanoscience and nanotechnology field. The project explored several aspects of student learning, including students motivations for investigating nanotechnology through interdisciplinary coursework. To collect this information, a survey was administered to students who enrolled to two nanoscience and nanotechnology courses. Data collected from the survey will be used to improve the design and delivery of future courses as part of constructing a complete nanoscience and nanotechnology curriculum.
