Coursework will be completed through lectures, software-based training, laboratory experience, tool training and processing training. Students will use nanotechnology instruments in Ivy Tech's nanotechnology lab and at Notre Dame's nanofabrication facility. <\/p>\n
There will be an open house from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. April 26 to provide information about the summer program. The open house, which is free and open to the general public, will be in Room 1300 at the Ivy Tech campus, 220 Dean Johnson Blvd. Nanotechnology faculty and admissions staff will be available to answer questions, demonstrate equipment and assist prospective students with enrollment. <\/p>\n

The summer program will consist of six nanotechnology courses presented sequentially in two-week modules. All courses are three credit hours, and will meet from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays, each for a total of two weeks. Each student who completes the program will be awarded a certificate of completion by Penn State's Center for Nanotechnology Education & Utilization. <\/p>\n
Housing for students who live outside the area will be available through a partnership with Indiana University South Bend. <\/p>\n
