The University of Calgary nanoGroup is a student-led organization founded in 2013 with one central focus: to cultivate and support the nanotechnology community at the University of Calgary Campus. We strive to engage students in a variety of nano-related activities – colloquia, symposiums, outreach programs, entrepreneurial pursuits and networking with local industry. Our group is comprised of interdisciplinary members from the University of Calgary with connections to our sister chapter at the University of Alberta.
