Course DescriptionFundamentals of Nanoscience I (NANO 1101) is the first semester of a two-semester course sequence (NANO1101 and 1102) designed to expose students to the new and rapidly emerging fields of nanoscience and nanotechnology. It is designed to establish a basic understanding of the :
1. Underlying scientific basis for the behavior of nanomaterials.
2. Scope of nanomaterials potential use in products manufactured by various industries
3. Methods of fabrication and characterization of nanomaterials.

Nanoscience is a field of scientific study which is cross disciplinary and encompasses the broad areas of chemistry, biology and physics, materials science and engineering. Nanoscience strives to understand the composition, structure, properties and behavior of the molecules and atoms which make up the material in our environment and newly created nano-materials. Nanotechnology is the purposeful design and production of a product at the nanoscale (or microscale) which has useful applications in our world.
