Requirements for the B.S. in Nanoscale Science
The B.S. program in Nanoscale Science requires the completion of the following:
- Foundational Principles courses:
20 credits of N SCI/N ENG 110 (or T SCI/T ENH 110), 112, 120, 122, and
124 (or T SCI/T ENH 124). N SCI 122 and 124 may be replaced by N SCI
130 and 132 for students pursuing a Nanobioscience concentration.
- Core Competencies courses: 21 credits of N SCI 220 (or T SCI 220), 230 (or T SCI 230), 300, 305, 350, 360, and 410.
- Concentrations courses: 12 credits of Nanoscale Science courses from 1 of the following concentration areas:
Nanoelectronics: N SCI 310, 320, and 420-424
Nanostructured Materials: N SCI 310, 320, and 430-434
Nanobioscience: N SCI 240, 330, and 440-443
- Capstone Undergraduate Research/Design courses: 9 credits of N SCI 390X, 490, 492W.
- 9 credits of 400-level Nanoscale Engineering or Science topical elective courses.
- 6 credits of Nanotechnology survey courses from N ENG/N SCI 101-104.
- 6 credits of 200-level Nanoscale Science and Technology Skills electives.
- 1 credit of a senior seminar course (N SCI 498 or equivalent).
- 18
credits of Mathematics: A MAT 112, 113, 214, 220, and 314. Students may
also substitute the appropriate honors calculus courses offered by the
Department of Mathematics that meet the requirements of their major.
The total credit for the major is
102 credits. With the remaining General Education requirements not
already completed within the major, the total for the degree program
could total 132 credit hours, but by careful choice of General
Education requirements, the program can be completed within the 120
credits required for graduation from the University.
