Electrical and Computer Engineering Professor Receives UCLA Library Grant to Develop Affordable Course Materials

clarice Aiello, an assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering, has been awarded a one-time $5,000 grant from the UCLA Library’s Affordable Course Materials Initiative to develop materials for her forthcoming course on quantum mechanics for engineers.

She is one of three professors to receive the award, which is made in conjunction with OpenUCLA, the UCLA Library’s Centennial Initiative. The awards program provides support to professors who create original, open educational resources that eliminate the need for students to purchase course textbooks.

“The library’s ACMI awards are meant to encourage faculty to create affordable course materials by compensating them for the time it takes to develop them,” said associate university librarian Alison Scott, who administers the program. “We have successfully collaborated with instructors to help them achieve their educational objectives, and we have eased the financial burden for thousands of UCLA students.”

Aiello, a quantum engineer at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering, is interested in how quantum physics informs biology computer science average salary. Through the support of the OpenUCLA ACMI, Aiello will create an open educational resource for her winter 2021 course, “Quantum Mechanics for Engineers.” Librarian Renee Romero will work with Aiello during the duration of her award period.
