Resolution
Addition of a Minor in Nanomaterials Science and Engineering
Whereas the
existing minor in Materials Science has been popular and useful to many
students, and
Whereas the
new field of nanomaterials science and engineering is
the subject of considerable research activity in the University, government,
and private industry for its potential to produce new products and capabilities
and, thus, a benefit to our graduates, and
Whereas the establishment
of this minor will require no additional resources because many courses in this
field are currently being taught, be it therefore
Resolved that a minor in Nanomaterials Science
and Engineering be established in the Department of Materials Science and
Engineering.
