On The Scope – A Masterclass in Practical Scanning Electron Microscopy is a training program covering the fundamentals of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) operation. The program is provided by The Ohio State University Center for Electron Microscopy and Analysis (CEMAS), a unique facility containing more than $40 million in electron microscopes, expert technical staff, and a state-of-the-art digital theater. The program consists of two components:

Component #1: A series of lectures/demonstration sessions delivered 100% live, online or in-person over three days.
Component #2: A two day, “hands-on” training workshop on the electron microscopes. These training events are delivered in a safe, socially distant manner to small groups. The workshops are delivered in person using the established educational facilities and equipment at CEMAS.

Upon completion of the program, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the operating principles and applications of SEMs.
  • Perform a variety of common SEM imaging and analysis tasks.
  • Improve the quality of their own SEM data collection and analysis.

Participants who complete the program also receive a certificate of completion from CEMAS and the College of Engineering.
