The importance of Interfacial and Colloid Science across the spectrum from industrial manufacturing to energy development to biomedical research to everyday activities from cooking to cleaning is beyond dispute. Still， it is to be found in relatively few courses， particularly required courses， in science and engineering curricula in our colleges and universities. More often， it is that chapter in one's physics or chemistry text that is never assigned. The early stirrings of a shift in curricula to include this material is underway， however， particularly as new tools and insights are rapidly emerging and it is recognized as the bridge to the new era of nanoscience and nanotechnology.
