This degree prepares graduates for technical positions in the expanding fields of nanofabrication technology or professional nanomanufacturing technology, biotechnology, and/or work in biomedical industries (bionanofabrication). There are two options provided; both require a capstone semester to be taken at the NMT Facility at the University Park campus where students take six ESci courses (3 credits each) of instruction for a total of 18 credits.
NANOMANUFACTURING ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY OPTION (2NMT/ET): This option helps prepare graduates for technical positions in the field of nanofabrication technology. The primary objective is to provide a broad foundation of theoretical and practical knowledge in the areas of nanofabrication manufacturing, electrical and electronic circuits, digital circuits, nanofabrication manufacturing equipment, processing and testing. The program will also articulate with Pennsylvania Department of Education-approved Tech Prep programs. Secondary students who have graduated from a program covered by an assigned Penn State Articulation Agreement may be eligible for special admission procedures and/or advanced placement.
NANOMANUFACTURING SCIENCE OPTION (2NMT/SC): The Nanofabrication Science
option is designed to provide for the basic educational needs of students who
want to pursue professional programs in nanomanufacturing technology fields
primarily in the biotech and biomedical industries (bionanofabrication). The
program provides a fundamental group of science courses and a comprehensive
group of nanomanufacturing technology courses to those who wish to pursue employment
opportunities where such knowledge is necessary or desirable. The program offers
a pathway for students to obtain jobs in new and exciting fields, as well as
older, established disciplines that are upgrading with this new and emerging
technology. Graduates of the program may qualify for admission to the baccalaureate
degrees in science. Students who plan to continue in baccalaureate degrees are
encouraged to work closely with their advisers.
For the Associate in Engineering Technology degree in Nanofabrication Manufacturing
Technology, a minimum of 66-70 credits is required.

This minor offers students an opportunity to examine the opportunities and challenges presented by convergence of telecommunications and information processing. Internet-mediated services have the potential of fundamentally changing how we communicate and engage in commerce. This convergence offers faster, better, cheaper, smarter, and more convenient services, but also raises a variety of legal, regulatory, political, social, economic, and technology management issues. The IST/Telecommunications minor offers students enrolled in majors outside the College of Communications and the School of Information Sciences and Technology an opportunity to examine how telecommunications and information processing technologies and services will impact society as well as their individual circumstances.
The Telecommunications requirements of this minor constitute three courses (nine credit hours). Students can fulfill this requirement by completing COMM 180 offered by the Telecommunications Department in the College of Communications and by completing two additional courses from the following list: COMM 479(3), COMM 484(3), COMM 490(3), COMM 491(3) and COMM 492(3). Three IST courses (ten credit hours) constitute the other part of this minor.
A one-time tuition surcharge will be applied to all students enrolled in the minor. A grade of C or better is required for all courses in the minor.

This interdisciplinary major is designed to give students an integrated and critical understanding of the experiences and contributions of peoples of African descent. Students are encouraged to do research and evaluate the relationship between the political, social, and economic developments in Africa and the African Diaspora. Two options are available within the major and are described here.
AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDIES OPTION:
This option provides students with the opportunity to explore the experiences
of African Americans using theories and methods originating in the field along
with those adopted from the various disciplines. Students are also made aware
of the potential to apply knowledge to discern better approaches for solving
social, political, and economic problems. The curriculum also promotes greater
understanding of the relationship between African American and other ethnic
groups in the shaping of American society and culture.
Focus Areas: The African American Studies Option has three focus areas, which are described below.
AFRICAN STUDIES OPTION:
This option provides students with the opportunity to examine the geographical,
cultural, historical, political, and economic aspects of Africa. This option
has two focus areas as described below.
LAW AND SOCIAL JUSTICE OPTION:
This multi-disciplinary program would provide students with the opportunity
to study the politics, culture, economics, and history of African Americans
in our society and link this understanding with an in depth study of criminal
justice and the legal system. Issues that students will focus on will be areas
such as, Are African Americans discriminated against in criminal justice decision-making?
What is the historic connection between race and punishment in the US legal
system? How do issues of class, race and gender impact policy decisions about
crime and punishment? What is the socioeconomic impact of high incarceration
rates on the African American community? The program is designed to encourage
students to think systematically about the relationship among public policy,
the criminal justice system, and shifting notions of social justice that have
characterized debates over the workings and goals of the prison system in American
life and thought.
For the B.A. degree in African and African American Studies, a minimum of 123 credits is required.

This interdisciplinary major is designed to give students an integrated and critical understanding of the experiences and contributions of peoples of African descent. Students are encouraged to do research and evaluate the relationship between the political, social, and economic developments in Africa and the African Diaspora. An African American Studies Option, African Studies Option, and a Law and Social Justice Option are available within the major. The methodology requirements of the proposed program would enable our students to engage in social science research. It would also prepare them better for graduate programs in the social sciences.
AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDIES OPTION: This emphasis provides students with the opportunity to explore the experiences of African Americans using theories and methods originating in the field along with those adopted from the various disciplines. Students are also made aware of the potential to apply this knowledge to the solution of social, political, and economic problems.

PROFESSOR DEBORAH F. ATWATER, in charge
The minor in Black Diaspora Studies is designed to broaden the perspectives of students through an examination of the international/transnational dimensions of the experiences of African and African-descent populations, particularly those in the Western Hemisphere. Since the early 16th century, when Europe, the Americas, and Africa were brought into a pattern of sustained interaction following the onset of the Age of European Discovery, the African slave trade and other forms of migration and exchange have been critical to the formative experience of Africans and African-descent populations linked by the Atlantic. The intensity and impact of those exchanges have varied over time, but the presence of Africans and African-descent populations in the evolution of Atlantic civilization constitutes the core of the study of the African Diaspora. A grade of C or better is required for all courses in the minor.

In addition to the traditional physics education offered in the General Physics option, three other options, Acoustics, Electronics, and Medical Physics, provide opportunities for students in special related areas of a more applied nature, while a fifth option, Teaching, provides opportunities for teaching physics in secondary schools.
The Department of Physics offers an honors program in physics.
In order to be eligible for entrance to the Physics major, a student must have: 1) attained at least a 2.00 cumulative grade-point average; 2) completed CHEM 012 GN(3), MATH 140 GQ(4), MATH 141 GQ(4), PHYS 211 GN(4), and PHYS 212 GN(4), and earned a grade of C or better in each of these courses.
For the B.S. degree in Physics, a minimum of 123 credits is required.
