This Nanotechnology Undergraduate Education (NUE) program entitled, "NUE: New Vision for Built Environment-Integration of Nanotechnology into Civil Engineering Undergraduate Curriculum," at Jackson State University, under the direction of Dr. Wei Zheng, will bring together a multidisciplinary and multiorganizational team from Jackson State University (JSU), an Historically Black University, the University of Texas-Pan American (UTPA), University of Oklahoma (UO), and include partnerships with industries and Canadian Institute of Research in Construction. The project goals include: introducing the application and cutting-edge research development of nanotechnology in civil engineering to undergraduates, updating the mainstream civil engineering curriculum, and developing new teaching strategies to achieve undergraduate educational outcomes.Intellectual Merit: The project initiates original multi-disciplinary collaborative efforts to enhance the curriculum of Construction Materials with nanotechnology-enabling materials and devices. It will provide students basic understanding of the fundamental principals of nanotechnology and its application in civil engineering, and well prepare them to work with nanotechnology in the future. Broader Impacts: The new course modules developed for the Construction Materials course will be integrated into other courses related to civil engineering. These modules will be implemented at the three participating universities and will be available for implementation nationwide. This project will help facilitate future collaboration to establish a new advanced joint curriculum of Structure Control for students in the civil engineering, mechanical engineering and technology department amoung participating universities and will help to strengthen the civil engineering program at both JSU and UTPA.The proposal for this award was received in response to the Nanotechnology Undergraduate Education (NUE) Program Solicitation (NSF 06-538) and is being co-funded by the Directorate for Engineering (ENG), Division of Design and Manufacturing Innovation (DMI), the Division of Civil and Mechanical Systems (CMS), and the Division of Engineering Education and Centers (EEC).

杰克逊州立大学纳米技术本科教育 (NUE) 项目题为“NUE：建筑环境新愿景——纳米技术融入土木工程本科课程”，由郑伟博士指导，将汇集多学科和多组织的人才团队来自历史悠久的黑人大学杰克逊州立大学 (JSU)、德克萨斯泛美大学 (UTPA)、俄克拉荷马大学 (UO)，并与各行业和加拿大建筑研究所建立了合作伙伴关系。 项目目标包括：向本科生介绍纳米技术在土木工程中的应用和前沿研究进展，更新主流土木工程课程，制定新的教学策略以实现本科教育成果。 智力优势：该项目开创了原创性的多学科交叉合作努力利用纳米技术材料和设备来加强建筑材料课程。 它将使学生对纳米技术的基本原理及其在土木工程中的应用有基本的了解，并为他们将来使用纳米技术做好准备。 更广泛的影响：为建筑材料课程开发的新课程模块将被整合到与土木工程相关的其他课程中。 这些模块将在三所参与大学实施，并将在全国范围内实施。 该项目将有助于促进未来的合作，为参与大学的土木工程、机械工程和技术系的学生建立新的高级结构控制联合课程，并将有助于加强 JSU 和 UTPA 的土木工程项目。该奖项是为了响应纳米技术本科教育（NUE）计划征集（NSF 06-538）而获得的，并由工程理事会（ENG）、设计和制造创新部（DMI）、该司共同资助土木和机械系统部 (CMS) 以及工程教育和中心部 (EEC)。
