DREAM: Drexel Research Experience in Advanced Materials

This NSF REU Site program brings 10 undergraduates from across the country into Drexel research labs with faculty and graduate student mentors for 10 weeks over the summer. DREAM students gain research experience, attend seminars and laboratory demonstrations, learn how to be effective communicators, and see some of Philadelphia's historical and cultural attractions.

Nanoscale Materials & Nanotechnology track for Materials Science & Engineering Undergraduates

New for the academic year 2008-2009, the Department of Materials Science & Engineering is offering specialization tracks for its undergraduate majors. A track is a sequence of four technical electives with an underlying connection to a specific area of materials science and engineering. Find out how a specialization in nanotechnology can help you!
