 | Nanotechnology Education ProgramsThe National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network (NNIN) at Nanotech finds talented, motivated people who want to learn nanotechnology.
We train students of all ages in a clean room specifically designed for education. These students acquire hands-on experience in the laboratory while learning new concepts and applying what they have learned to help solve real-world problems.
This educational outreach program relies heavily on a partnership of UCSB undergraduate and graduate student mentors, postdoctoral researchers, faculty mentors, as well as UCSB scientific and administrative staff to make it all happen. We especially thank the National Science Foundation for providing the means for this partnership to affect local schools and undergraduate students nationwide.

All high schools and middle schools in the Santa Barbara and Ventura counties are welcome to participate. Please click the link above to find out more about our next event. | Professional DevelopmentWe are in the process of developing a hands-on learning experience in nanotechnology that teachers can attend to earn professional development credits. We hope to have details posted here soon. Please check back for details.

| The Research Experience for Undergraduates program brings undergraduate students into the laboratories doing real-world research in nanoscale science and technology. Please click the link below for more information:
* Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU)
* Technicians in Nanotechnology (TINT)
* Short Course in Nanofabrication | The Research Experience for Teachers program brings high school science teachers into our laboratories to do real-world research in nanoscale science and technology. Participating teachers will regularly meet with NNIN Education staff to help translate the science they are learning into classroom curriculum and activities.
