Access NACK Resources
The NACK Center is committed to supporting the development of two-year degree programs in micro- and nanotechnology across the country by offering teaching resources suitable for the post-secondary level. NACK also provides materials for K-12 use. Click on a resource title below for more information.
AVAILABLE TEACHING RESOURCES *By accessing this material, you agree to the NACK Center's Terms of Use. Post Secondary Resources Introductory Level Modules: A series of thought-provoking nanotechnology PowerPoint presentations filled with in-depth material surveying where nanotechnology came from, why it is so unique, how it is practiced, and what it can do. Undergraduate Materials: Course Lectures, Videos, and Associated Labs: Packaged as six courses, each contains multiple modules and corresponding lab packages. All modules and labs can be rearranged to create new courses. Suitable for two-year degree programs, for certificate programs, and for freshman-sophomore use in four-year degree programs. E SC 211 | E SC 212 | E SC 213 | E SC 214 | E SC 215 | E SC 216 Remote Access: Video learning modules and example lab experiments suitable for post-secondary and secondary classrooms.
