No useful activities. Very limited resources that could be used
for curriculum modules 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 nonprofit
laboratories. Collaborative research is encouraged through several
mechanisms: Interdisciplinary
Research Groups (IRGs), Initiative Projects, Shared Experimental Facilities
(SEFs), and Outreach
Programs. IRGs are composed of
MIT faculty who, with their students and postdoctoral associates, investigate
fundamental scientific questions and pathways to reach significant
technological goals that can only be properly explored in a collaborative,
multidisciplinary mode. These problems are too large in scope to be addressed
by individual faculty members and their students. The research goals and
accomplishments are reviewed regularly so that appropriate adjustments can be
made to insure the quality of the Center's research effort. Four IRGs are
presently supported.
