The National Science Foundation (NSF) is offering this grant to revolutionize undergraduate engineering education by introducing nanoscale science, engineering, and technology. This initiative, Nanotechnology Undergraduate Education (NUE), seeks to integrate these cutting-edge fields through a variety of interdisciplinary approaches into existing curricula. For the FY 2013 competition, the primary focus is on nanoscale engineering education, particularly projects that are relevant to the development of innovative devices and systems. Additionally, the grant encourages proposals that critically examine the societal, ethical, economic, and environmental issues intrinsically linked to nanotechnology. This funding opportunity aims to foster a new generation of engineers equipped with a deep understanding of nanoscale principles and their broader implications.
