[10]–[12].It is notable that atomically thin materials can be seen at all with only the aid of a lightmicroscope. The study of the optical contrast of vdW materials began with graphene in 2007shortly after its isolation [13]. By using the Fresnel equations and silicon substrates withprecisely known oxide layers, we can determine the thickness of deposited flakes. This in termprovides the number of atomic layers in the flake, information critical to the properties andapplications of vdW materials. This method has been widely used to study graphene [13], [14],transition metal dichalcogenides [15]–[17], and previous studies of hBN itself [18]–[21] and isthe basis for emerging approaches to automated flake searches and layer number determination

Much of the early research was simply spent on education, especially onlearning how to effectively use SolidWorks and SketchUp software tools. With that noted, thisopportunity was an incredibly enriching activity. Although he lacked formal engineeringtraining, he has significant experience with information technology and coding, and teaches thesetopics at a local high school. This foundational knowledge assisted him in learning many of thenew concepts with which this project required mastery. Finally, and most importantly, thisresearch opportunity will eventually allow him to enhance his classroom, both with hisexperience and newfound knowledge

This came as somewhat of asurprise to NEET leadership and faculty as building community wasn’t part of the initial NEET vision orobjectives. When we probed this further, the students said that they are excited to be a part of NEET,that they want to develop the NEET identity and brand, and that developing NEET as a

Engineering departments at MIT, Stanford, or Caltech are a main sourc of innovationand technology emergence of their region, and significant contributors to local and nationalwelfare 8,9. Accordingly, current theories of innovation assign an active, quasi-entrepreneurialrole for universities in the national innovation system (see e.g. 10). This global shift towards anentrepreneurial university paradigm has led to a re-thinking of engineering education along thelines of innovation, entrepreneurship, socio-economic systems and university-industry linkages.In 2005, the

will inform design education in other disciplines, as stakeholderconsiderations can be integrated into the design process for any complex system. Over the nextfew decades, technology will continue to advance at a rapid pace. Today’s engineering studentswill need to consider critical design issues, such as the implications of fully automated machinesand vehicles or renewable energy that powers cities or aircraft. They will need to make designdecisions and compromises between technical considerations and the economic and humanconsiderations17. By incorporating stakeholder considerations into the engineering designcurricula, this work will assist faculty in preparing their students to respond to these and otherfuture engineering
