This course describes the technology, challenges, and applications of nanoscale devices for environmental technology and engineering. The first part of the course will explore the underlying science behind nanotechnology and the tools used to create and characterize nanostructures; the second part will deal with the current and potential applications of such devices in environmental science and engineering. Material will be presented on a level intended for upper-level engineering students.

Prerequisite(s): Completion of the second year of the Engineering program.

Extra Information: 3 lecture hours.
