Doherty This renovation project will remodel research space in the Chemical Engineering Department at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. This department is one of the leading research institutions for chemical engineering in the United States, ranking consistently in the top 15 departments nationwide on the basis of Ph. D. degrees awarded. This renovation project will modernize a substantial fraction of their wet lab space that was built in the 1920s and is now obsolete. The NSF support will also permit renovations that are badly needed in order to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. The renovation will support research activities in Process Design and Control, Polymer Engineering, Applied Theoretical Chemistry, and Catalysis and Reaction Engineering. The improved facilities capabilities will strengthen both programs focused on experimental studies of materials and surfaces as well as programs emphasizing computational modeling research. Finally, the renovated laboratories will also impact graduate training in the scientific areas involved.

Doherty 这个改造项目将改造位于阿默斯特的马萨诸塞州大学化学工程系的研究空间。 该系是美国领先的化学工程研究机构之一，以博士生数量计算，该系在全国排名前15位。授予的学位。 这个改造项目将使他们在20世纪20年代建造的湿实验室空间的很大一部分现代化，现在已经过时了。 NSF的支持还将允许迫切需要的翻新，以符合美国残疾人法案。 改造将支持过程设计和控制，聚合物工程，应用理论化学以及催化和反应工程的研究活动。 改进后的设施能力将加强两个项目，重点是材料和表面的实验研究，以及强调计算建模研究的项目。 最后，翻新后的实验室还将影响相关科学领域的研究生培训。
