The Vanderbilt Program for Talented Youth is accepting applications for the 2022 Vanderbilt Summer Academy course in Nanoscience and Nanoengineering. This is a two-week residential program that exposes students to the exciting world of nanoengineering. In this class, students get an introduction into key nanoparticles and their properties while, stretching creative problem solving skills to their limits. Students can expect advanced lectures, labs, and extensive study with faculty, graduate students, and postdocs and will get to spend significant time in one of Vanderbilt’s newest, biggest, and cleanest cleanrooms. These experiences will challenge students to see the world the way a nanoscientist does—how manipulating the smallest of particles might address some of the world’s biggest problems.
