The College of Chemical and Life Sciences enthusiastically supports the initiative to establish an
interdisciplinary minor program in Nanoscience and Technology at the University of Maryland, and agrees
to participate in this program. We agree that the central administration for this program will reside in the
Materials Science and Engineering Department, due to the multidisciplinary nature of this department. The
College of Chemical and Life Sciences participation will be centered in the Department of Chemistry and
Biochemistry.
We anticipate .this will be a minor that the students will find exciting and popular across many departments
from the CLFS, CMPS and EIIGR. We are pleased to participate in this multidisciplinary training effort.
Sincerely,
Norma M. Allewell
Professor and Dean
