Multidisciplinary
courses on Nano and Micro Systems for Biomedical applications
The faculty
members in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering department and collage of
engineering are currently designing a new interdisciplinary program at the
interface of micro-, bio-, nano-, and information technologies. An essential part of our interdisciplinary
program is to reorganize existing nano/micro technology courses and to
develop new courses to provide a comprehensive training to the students in
these highly interdisciplinary areas.
Currently, our new program consists of 5 core courses covering
fundamental science, fabrication, device designs, and applications of micro
and nano technology and is expected to further expand in the near future
(please see department website for details).

A ME300 Instrumentation Laboratory
New materials of micro and nano transducers
and biosensors will be introduced junior/senior level instrumentation course,
AME 300. Developments of new
experimental modules are also in progress.
Please see course
website for detail.
Guest Lecture in Biomechanics and Micro Biomechanics
Dr.
Wong gives several guest lectures in the Biomechanical Engineering (AME
466/566) and Micro Bioengineering (AME 483/583) about Biomechanics in the
molecular and cellular level. Lecture
notes can be download in the following links:

Education
|
|
To introduce the general public about the development of
bio-nano-technologies, SBL will develop and maintain a web-based tutorial
and exhibits. Also a download area
is also available for downloading SBL materials for education and classroom
teaching purpose.
