Fall 2007 Short Courses offered by MCL
Throughout the year, the Materials Characterization Lab (MCL) offers short courses aimed at educating students, faculty, post docs, staff, visitors, and industrial representatives in various materials characterization techniques. The short courses "a one- or two-day intensive learning opportunity" lay the groundwork for new users to be trained on the instruments and apply what they learn in the short course classroom to their research efforts. Plans are underway for a number of Fall 2007 short courses including:
- High Resolution X-ray Scattering Methods for Thin Film Materials Analysis - confirmed for August 17, 2007
- Workshop on Modern Methods of Powder Diffraction (date to be announced)
- Thermal Analysis (date to be announced)
- Particle Characterization (date to be announced)
- Auger Electron Spectroscopy and X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (date to be announced)
The short course schedule posted on the MCL New & Events Web site will be updated as plans for each course are finalized. Register now for the Thin Film X-ray short course scheduled for August 17th as space is limited.
If you have questions or would like more information about the short courses, please contact Elaine Sanders in the MCL Administrative Office by e-mail (mcl@psu.edu)or by phone (814-865-2328).
