For the last five years, I have introduced a new class entitled micro and nanotechnology that is cross listed in the undergraduate and graduate curriculum. A couple of years ago, I also tried to incorporate a laboratory component to the class. In this talk, I will describe my learnings from the class that is normally attended by 30-55 students. I will also discuss the need for funding for such classes especially those with a laboratory component.
