About AMR
The Advanced Materials Research Initiative is a newly funded effort at the College of Science and Technology at Central Michigan University. The organizational and administrative purpose of the initiative is to:
- Foster collaboration between CMU faculty in advanced materials research
- Encourage CMU faculty to compete for external funding from federal and industrial sources
- Promote educational and technical outreach to collaborators outside CMU
- Create interdepartmental educational programs in advanced materials research
- Help CMU become a focal point in Mid Michigan for education and research in advanced materials
- Elevate CMU's national standing in the research community
The effort is an informal organization presently anchored within the Departments of Physics and Chemistry at CMU, with developing links to biology, geology, applied mathematics and engineering sciences.
