Aerosol and Particle Measurement Short Course 2025 - 48th Edition

Join us for the 48th edition of this internationally recognized Short Course on Aerosol and Particle Measurement. Since its inception, the course has welcomed over 2,650 participants from industry, government, and academia. In 2022 alone, 63 professionals attended to enhance their expertise in airborne particle measurement and behavior.
 

What You Can Expect

You will develop a solid understanding of aerosol science and the tools used to characterize particles in various environments. Through lectures and lab sessions, you’ll explore:

• Fundamentals of aerosol properties and behavior
• Sampling and measuring PM2.5 and other fine particles
• Industrial hygiene sampling techniques
• Nanoparticle exposure measurement
• Cleanroom and contamination control practices
• Hands-on sessions at TSI Incorporated and University of Minnesota
• Evening reception & dinner: Connect with fellow participants and instructors during the TSI-sponsored networking reception and dinner following lab sessions.

 

Who Should Attend - And Why

Whether you're new to aerosol science or an experienced professional, this course offers essential knowledge and hands-on skills for measuring and analyzing airborne particles. Learn from international experts and gain practical experience in state-of-the-art labs at TSI Incorporated and the University of Minnesota. Ideal for scientists, engineers, product designers, and professionals working in industrial hygiene, air pollution, cleanrooms, or sectors like microelectronics, aerospace, automotive, biotech, pharma, and environmental monitoring.

Explore Hands-On Lab Sessions

Engage firsthand with TSI's particle and aerosol instruments for practical learning during the short course.

Lab A - Aerosol Conditioning & Sampling In this lab session, we will experiment with several actions and best practices pertaining to preparing aerosol particles for measurement (conditioning), and pertaining to drawing the aerosol particles from their native location into a measurement instrument (sampling). Best practices in this space are vital to the collection of accurate, actionable data.

Lab B - Monitoring Submicrometer Particles In this lab session we will focus on instrumentation that can be used to measure submicrometer particles that may be transient (quickly changing) in nature, or may need to be measured in a mobile fashion.

Lab C - Supermicrometer Particles This lab will demonstrate two instruments that can generate aerosols larger than a micron, as well as several instruments appropriate for sizing such aerosols. Appropriate applications for each of these instruments will be discussed.

Lab D - Filtration In filter testing there are quite a few choices to make: aerosol composition, aerosol size, detector design, flow rate, etc. We will show – and use – several automated filter testers that are suitable for key applications. While doing so we will describe how the above-listed choices are relevant to various applications, and are thus included in (or made possible by) the automated testers.
