  • Introducing Nanoengineering and Nanotechnology to the First Year Students Through an Interactive Seminar Course
    Introducing nanoengineering and nanotechnology to the first year students through an interactive seminar course Hassan Raza1, Tehseen Z. Raza2 1 Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa 52242, USA [email protected] 2 Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa 52242, USA [email protected] Abstract: We report a first year seminar course on nanoengineering, which provides a unique opportunity to get exposed to the bottom-up approach and novel nanotechnology applications in an informal small class setting early in the undergraduate engineering education. Our objective is not only to introduce the fundamentals and applications of nanoengineering but also the issues related to ethics, environmental and societal impact of nanotechnology used in engineering. To make the course more interactive, laboratory tours for microfabrication facility, microscopy facility, and nanoscale laboratory at the University of Iowa are included, which inculcate the practical feel of the technology. The course also involves active student participation through weekly student presentations, highlighting topics of interest to this field, with the incentive of “nano is everywhere!” Final term papers submitted by the students involve a rigorous technology analysis through various perspectives. Furthermore, a student based peer review process is developed which helps them to improve technical writing skills, as well as address the ethical issues of academic honesty while reviewing and getting introduced to a new aspect of the area presented by their colleagues. Based on the chosen paper topics and student ratings, the student seemed motivated to learn about the novel area introduced to them through theoretical, computational and experimental aspects of the bottom-up approach.

  • Engineering and Engineering Technology
    Engineering and Engineering Technology Career Information Definition according to the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET): Engineering is the profession in which knowledge of the mathematical and natural sciences gained by study, experience, and practice is applied with judgment to develop ways to utilize economically the materials and forces of nature for the benefit of mankind. Engineering Technology is the part of the technological field that requires the application of scientific and engineering knowledge and methods combined with technical skills in support of engineering activities; it lies in the occupational spectrum between the craftsman and the engineer at the end of the spectrum closest to the engineer. Difference between Engineering Technology and Engineering Technical engineering projects involve research, complex analysis/design, development, manufacturing, test/evaluation, production, operation and distribution/sales of a finished and successful product. Engineers are mostly involved in the initial phase, whereas engineering technologists are mostly involved in the final phases. Their roles overlap in the development, manufacturing and test/evaluation of a product. Therefore, Engineering Technology is all about applying engineering principles to get the job done successfully (Applications Engineering). Engineers are the scientists within the team with in-depth math/science knowledge. Engineering technologists work as technical members of the engineering team with math/science background. Cal Poly

  • Coping with the Delineation of Emerging Fields: Nanoscience and Nanotechnology As a Case Study
    Coping with the delineation of emerging fields: Nanoscience and Nanotechnology as a case study. Journal of Informetrics, forthcoming; v. December 20,2018 Teresa Muñoz-Écija, Benjamín Vargas-Quesada, Zaida Chinchilla Rodríguez* Abstract Proper field delineation plays an important role in scientometric studies, although it is a tough task. Based on an emerging and interdisciplinary field —nanoscience and nanotechnology— this paper highlights the problem of field delineation. First we review the related literature. Then, three different approaches to delineate a field of knowledge were applied at three different levels of aggregation: subject category, publication level, and journal level. Expert opinion interviews served to assess the data, and precision and recall of each approach were calculated for comparison. Our findings confirm that field delineation is a complicated issue at both the quantitative and the qualitative level, even when experts validate results. Keywords: Field delineation; Science classification; Research topics; Bibliometrics; Scientometrics Highlights: This study offers an updated literature review of NST as a delineated field. We provide an extended and unified NST search strategy suitable for two databases, Scopus and Web of Science. After formulating a conceptual framework as to how to employ different approaches described in the literature, we tried to delineate the NST field at the journal level through a seven-step procedure. Three approaches —at subject category, publication and journal levels— were adopted to explore and analyze these two databases. The results are compared, and we offer a detailed explanation of the topics related to the journals included in each level. At the publication level, we compare the potential of the micro-field classification system developed by Waltman and van Eck (2012) with the other two approaches.

Our work aims at summarizing some of the most relevant prevailing cases of nanotechnological approaches applied to tissue engineering with a specific interest in cardiac regenerative medicine, as well as delineating some of the most compelling forthcoming orientations. Specifically, this review starts with a brief statement on the relevant clinical need, and then debates how nanotechnology can be combined with tissue engineering in the scope of mimicking a complex tissue like the myocardium and its natural extracellular matrix (ECM). The interaction of relevant stem, precursor, and differentiated cardiac cells with nanoengineered scaffolds is thoroughly presented. Another correspondingly

  • National Nanotechnology Initiative
    NATIONAL NANOTECHNOLOGY INITIATIVE: Leading to the Next Industrial Revolution A Report by the Interagency Working Group on Nanoscience, Engineering and Technology Committee on Technology National Science and Technology Council February 2000 Washington, D.C. 2 THE WHITE HOUSE February 7, 2000 MEMBERS OF CONGRESS: I am pleased to forward with this letter National Nanotechnology Initiative: Leading to the Next Industrial Revolution, a report prepared by the Interagency Working Group on Nanoscience, Engineering and Technology (IWGN) of the National Science and Technology Council’s Committee on Technology. This report supplements the President’s FY 2001 budget request and highlights the nanotechnology funding mechanisms developed for this new initiative, as well as the funding allocations by each participating Federal agency. The President is making the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI) a top priority. Nanotechnology thrives from modern advances in chemistry, physics, biology, engineering, medical, and materials research and contributes to cross-disciplinary training of the 21st century science and technology workforce. The Administration believes that nanotechnology will have a profound impact on our economy and society in the early 21st century, perhaps comparable to that of information technology or of cellular, genetic, and molecular biology. In the FY 2001 budget, the President proposes to expand the Federal nanotechnology investment portfolio with this $495 million initiative, nearly doubling the current Federal research in nanotechnology. The NNI incorporates fundamental research, Grand Challenges, centers and networks of excellence and research infrastructure, as well as ethical, legal and social implications and workforce. The President’s Committee of Advisers on Science and Technology (PCAST) strongly endorses the establishment of the NNI, beginning in FY 2001, as proposed by the IWGN.
