Teaching
Undergraduate/Graduate Teaching
At NCSU, Dr. Dong teaches undergraduate courses in manufacturing, such as “Manufacturing Eng. II Automation” , and co-teaches a new undergraduate nanotechnology laboratory course “Introduction to Multidisciplinary Nanotechnology Laboratory” that was supported by a NSF Nanotechnology Undergraduate Education (NUE) project (NSF EEC-1042101).
Dr. Dong also developed and teaches graduate courses of “Micro/Nano-scale Fabrication” and “Advanced Nanomanufacturing”.

Outreach
Dr. Dong’s group is active in outreach through many channels (Engineering open house, Summer camp, Nanodays, collaboration with local Charter High School, etc.). The outreach efforts target middle- and high-school students and teachers, with emphases on ensuring the participation of underrepresented groups. The goal is to raise the long-term awareness of the scientific principles and practical applications of nanomanufacturing that have traditionally received little attention in the K-12 education.
