Advanced Design Studies in Product Realization provides advanced engineering design graduate students with the technical and intellectual resources necessary to produce an unambiguously professional-quality project in an area of individual specialization. Emphasis is on integrated design and manufacture of a project in a diverse range of processes and materials. Students will meet bi-weekly to receive collegial support and critique from the instructor, interdisciplinary faculty mentor team, practitioners in the field, and students enrolled in the course. Prerequisites: Students will be accepted into the program on the basis of a portfolio review and a brief essay describing the proposed project. Students will be asked to name a faculty member who can provide a reference upon request. Instructor consent required.

ME 420: Applied Electrochemistry at Micro- and Nanoscale
The class is an introduction to applied electrochemistry with focus on micro- and nanoscale applications. Basic concepts of physical chemistry are presented, of which the fundamentals of electrochemistry are built. Theory of electrochemical methods for material analyses and material modifications are discussed with emphasis on the scaling behaviors. This year electrochemical energy generation/storage devices with focus on batteries will be discussed in class. Journals articles are reviewed within the framework of the course with focus on current problems and needs in and energy conversion and storage.
