Bio-fuels Starting Fall 2008   NDSCS receives more than $1.3 million in congressional funding

NDSCS Bio-fuels Technology Program will be starting Fall Semester 2008. The two-year (five semesters) program is designed to train individuals in the industrial production methods used to convert biomass into ethanol, bio-diesel and liquid synthetic fuels for energy use. Read more

  

Congress has earmarked more than $1.3 million for two NDSCS Nanoscience and Emerging Technologies initiatives.

Senator Byron Dorgan, Senator Kent Conrad and Congressman Earl Pomeroy secured funding that provides $957,967 toward development of the NDSCS Center for Nanoscience Technology Training (CNTT) and $351,000 for the NDSCS Nanotechnology Applied Science Laboratory.  The appropriations are included in the Fiscal Year 2008 Consolidated Appropriations Act. 

The funding approved by Congress is very timely and will be important as NDSCS further develops the CNTT and the Applied Science Laboratory.   NDSCS faculty, staff and students thank the congressional delegation for their efforts.

 

  
Phase One of Lab Renovation Completed  
LabPhase one of a multi-phased renovation project has been completed. The Applied Sciences and Advanced Manufacturing laboratory will be ready for spring courses.  The class 10,000 cleanroom will be used for the Manufacturing Quality Assurance course. See Facilities  
   
Nano 101 & 102 Offered to H.S. Students  
Fundamentals of Nanoscience I and II on-line courses are available to high school students for college credit.  Two North Dakota students have already taken advantage of this opportunity to take a high-tech course while still in high school.  So ‘Get into Nanoscience’ and find out how this tiny technology is making some big strides!  Contact Margaret Wall for more information.
