CNM MEMS Design Rocks!.jpg "Kyle - Team Lead")
Here we are, burning the midnight oil! Kyle, Brian, Ian, Justin, Nic, and James are working hard completing the final touches on ther design submision due at midnight!
We have some really innovative MEMS devices to wow the judges of the Sandia National Laboratories University Alliance MEMS Design Competition.
Central New Mexico is a community college with the only MEMS Technician program in the US. These CNM MEMS design students are working at the University of New Mexico's MTTC MEMS design lab where students also learn to fabricate MEMS systems in MTTC's cleanroom in the two fabrication classes.
