Educational and training program of THz Science and Technology at Rensselaer

Rensselaer is establishing an educational program, THz Science and Technology, with an interdisciplinary faculty team from Departments of Physics, Biology, and Electrical, Computer, and Systems Engineering. Doctoral level students are trained in THz electronics, THz spectroscopy, THz imaging, and THz data transfer and networking. We present examples of focus research and studio based education.
