Nanosystems Engineering Educational Objectives and Outcomes

Nanosystems Engineering Educational Objectives

(adopted 1/30/2006, revised 11/2/2007, 1/31/2009, 11/5/2010, 10/28/2011)

Program educational objectives are broadly stated goals pertaining to career and professional accomplishments desired of our graduates three to five years after graduation. The following four educational objectives have been identified as the program's overarching goals for the achievements of our graduates:

  • NSENEO1: Graduates will apply their knowledge of nanotechnology and fundamental skills in engineering obtained from the program to their chosen profession.
  • NSENEO2: Graduates will be employed in successful careers in the fields of engineering and/or science, or be pursuing post-graduate study in related fields.
  • NSENEO3: Graduates will exhibit strong communication and interpersonal skills, as well as professional and ethical principles, and function effectively as members and leaders of multidisciplinary teams.
  • NSENEO4: Graduates will engage in life-long learning in order to remain technically current and knowledgable in their field.

Nanosystems Engineering Student Outcomes

(adopted 1/30/2006, revised 11/2/2007, 5/7/2010, 10/28/2011)

Program outcomes are narrower statements that describe what students are expected to know and be able to do by the time of graduation. These relate to the skills, knowledge, and behaviors that students acquire in their matriculation through the program. Upon graduation, students of the Nanosystems Engineering program will demonstrate:

  • NSE SO-01 (ABET 3a) an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering.
  • NSE SO-02 (ABET 3b) an ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data.
  • NSE SO-03 (ABET 3c) an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability.
  • NSE SO-04 (ABET 3d) an ability to function on multidisciplinary teams.
  • NSE SO-05 (ABET 3e) an ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems.
  • NSE SO-06 (ABET 3f) an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility.
  • NSE SO-07 (ABET 3g) an ability to communicate effectively.
  • NSE SO-08 (ABET 3h) the broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context.
  • NSE SO-09 (ABET 3i) a recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning.
  • NSE SO-10 (ABET 3j) a knowledge of contemporary issues.
  • NSE SO-11 (ABET 3k) an ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.
