Abstract:
The Nanotechnology Discovery Summer Camp is a week-long day camp (June 06-10, 2011 or June 20-24, 2011) that provides a unique opportunity for high-school students entering their sophomore, junior, and senior years to explore the interdisciplinary field of nanotechnology on the IUPUI campus.
IUPUI Nanotechnology Discovery Academy Summer Camp
West Lafayette, IN | Posted on March 8th, 2011
Nanotechnology concerns the control of matter in the nanometer scale: one nanometer is one billionth of a meter, or 100,000 times smaller than a human hair. This cutting-edge field is becoming an essential part of science, engineering, medicine, and many other disciplines. The camp fee ($295) covers all camp materials and supplies, and includes daily lunch and the cost of one IUPUI course credit. For more details, please see our website.
Nanotechnology is the interdisciplinary field that through the control of matter in the nanometer scale length dimensions harnesses new functionalities and properties for the creation of highly desirable materials, devices, and systems for a broad range of applications, ranging from energy and medicine, to information technology and consumer goods.
