Promoting Academic Excellence at UNL

Programs of Excellence Funded Projects

The Programs of Excellence (POE) have historically been based on department and college priorities. During 2006-07, 23 programs emerged as candidates for POE funding. Continued funding can be designated to support these programs, or other programs that meet the criteria.


Projects

AMOP
AMOP staff were able to describe the Batelaan Novel Interferometer (pictured above) in their research.

    Weitz's Photo of Batelaan Novel Interferometer is described in detail in a research report.





  2. Also related to AMOP's Achievements: The photograph below on the February 2007 cover of Laser Focus World shows the Diocles Laser Facility built by Professor Donald P. Umstadter in the AMOP Research unit. This illustrates the publicity this new laser facility is generating for UNL around the world.
