Welcome |
The purpose of the Institute for Manufacturing Research (IMR) is to enhance the University's existing technological strength in the areas of manufacturing research, which have demonstrated potential benefits for the State's economy. The primary mission of the faculty is to conduct basic applied research in selected areas of manufacturing science, to obtain extramural funding in support of the research, and to develop commercially significant products and processes.
The research programs within the Institute are broadly interdisciplinary and industrially interactive, and are organized around the following areas: materials,
|
|
| development, modification, and nondestructive evaluation; software technology for manufacturing and engineering; and product reliability and machine tool research. Faculty from the College of Science departments of Chemistry, Computer Science and Physics, along with faculty from the vast majority of departments within the College of Engineering, are involved in the research at IMR. |
