Dr. Curreli was invited to West Los Angeles Community College (WLAC) in Los Angeles to discuss the possibility of offering a nanotechnology courses on campus, and eventually create a certificate program. We agreed to “test the waters” by offering a pilot course in Spring 2017. This pilot course will be valuable in informing us if WLAC students would be interested in a deeper learning of nanoscience, rather than just a introductory course. “This is a great opportunity for Omni Nano to further expand its outreach in the community college space (after a lot of outreach at the high school level). It’s also important to inspire community college students to pursue STEM majors in a four-year university,” Dr. Curreli commented.
