This research project, the MEMS Laboratory Development for Undergraduate Curriculum Integration at the University of Virginia, is focused on creating a laboratory-based module for third and fourth year electrical engineering students at the University of Virginia. Microelectromechanical systems are a new, rising technology in the field of Electrical Engineering with the potential to impact many pre-existing applications. Microelectromechanical Systems, or MEMS, are developed through a micro-fabrication process using what is known as a layer and etch method. This method creates very thin layers of various materials and removes certain components from them to leave a free standing Microelectro-mechanical device. The development of this laboratory-based class is to insure that graduates of the Electrical Engineering department at UVA have an opportunity to gain a fundamental, hands-on understanding of this technology for utilization in engineering practice.
