The program involves hands-on experiments that combine vigorous scientific methodologies and techniques with projects that are both fun and exciting. Moreover, students will work on a team project to experience the process of proposing a scientific research. At the end of this program, students will better understand what makes nanoscience and nanotechnology one of the most exciting fields of research today, how to read a technical journal article, and the basic skills for proposing a new scientific research project.<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><br><br><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><b>The students will apply the knowledge they gain during this two-week course by presenting a research project proposal in a group of their peers. The presentations will be live streamed Friday, July 21, 9:30 am <i>pst</i>.</b>
