The Center for
Materials Science
and Engineering
(CMSE) has a special mission:
to foster collaborative
interdisciplinary research
and education in the fundamental
science of materials and
in the engineering of materials
for specific applications.
CMSE not only promotes collaboration
among MIT faculty trained
in different disciplines,
but also between MIT researchers
and the researchers of other
universities, industry,
and government and non-profit
laboratories. Interdisciplinary
research groups (IRGs),
supported by CMSE, are composed
of MIT faculty, who, with
their students and postdoctoral
associates, wish to investigate
fundamental scientific questions
and pathways to reach significant
technological goals that
can only be properly explored
in a collaborative, multidisciplinary
mode. CMSE also funds seed
projects led by individual
faculty. Because the list
of faculty supported by
the Center varies with shifts
in research emphasis, students
should consult the CMSE
web site for
the most accurate information.
Descriptions of current
research performed with
CMSE support can be accessed
at that site as well.
Note: CMSE
has limited
funding for
UROP students.
Consequently,
after consulting
with a faculty
supervisor,
each student
should submit
a proposal
with cover
sheet to Ms.
Rosevear as
soon as possible.
Safety: The
Center requires
everyone working
in a lab to
pass a safety
test administered
by CMSE. The
UROP Coordinator
will approve
proposals
only for students
who present
evidence of
having passed
this test.
Contact Ms.
Tat to make
arrangements.
