Meet the first undergraduate users of MIT.nano

MIT undergraduates have officially completed the first semester of coursework to be done at MIT.nano, the Institute’s new 216,000 square-foot center for nanoscale research.

The course, offered jointly by the Departments of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) and Materials Science and Engineering (DMSE), enrolled 25 undergraduate and nine graduate students from seven different departments in Fall 2019. The students learned nanofabrication by using research space and equipment throughout MIT.nano to make solar cells, MEMS cantilever beams, and microfluidic devices.
