The MRSEC Facilities Network is a nationwide partnership of NSF supported MRSEC centers designed to provide support to researchers in the broad area of Materials Research in academic, government and industrial laboratories around the world.
UMN Facilities
The University of Minnesota's Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (UMN MRSEC) is an innovative program that fosters a creative, interdisciplinary approach to materials research, interlocking faculty and students from seven departments in a pursuit that addresses the meticulous control of composition, structure, and properties in advanced materials. The UMN MRSEC was launched in 1998 from the strong tradition of collaboration among the science and engineering departments of the University's Institute of Technology. Through a combination of National Science Foundation, University, and industrial funding, the Center supports research in three Interdisciplinary Research Groups (IRGs), a Proto-IRG, and various Seed Groups. The UMN MRSEC encourages partnerships with industry, including collaborative hands-on research. In addition, the Center operates an ambitious Education and Human Resources (E & HR) effort.
