Renovation of Advanced Materials Laboratory in Chemical Engineering

雷克莱蒂斯 该奖项将支持普渡大学化学工程先进材料实验室的改造。 1987年，普渡大学将材料的分子和工程特性研究确定为对科学做出贡献的战略领域。 根据他们的战略计划，他们已经启动了一个过程，以加强材料科学中涉及的分析过程，并改善和提供在这一研究领域的学生的多样性的复杂培训。 普渡大学已经获得了一些最新和最复杂的材料分析分析仪器，但现在正在翻新这些仪器所在的过时实验室。 这次翻新将使约2600平方英尺的实验室空间现代化，其设计目的是：1）支持研究生和本科生的论文研究; 2）改善学生在实验研究的设计和执行方面的培训创新计划。 该改造项目将直接影响8名教师，44名研究生，4名博士后研究员和大量本科生，同时提高该机构在材料科学方面进行研究和培养学生的能力。

Reklaitis This award will support the renovation of the Advanced Materials Laboratory in Chemical Engineering at Purdue University. In 1987, Purdue identified research in the molecular and engineering properties of materials as a strategic area for their contributions to science. Following their strategic plan, they have put in motion a process to strengthen the analytical processes involved in materials science as well as improve and provide for sophisticated training of a diversity of students in this research area. Purdue has already acquired some of the latest and most sophisticated analytical instrumentation for materials analysis but is now renovating the out-dated labs in which this instrumentation is housed. This renovation will modernize about 2600 square feet of lab space designed: 1) to support graduate and undergraduate thesis research; and 2)to improve an innovative program for training students in the design and execution of experimental research. This renovation project will directly impact 8 faculty, 44 graduate students, 4 postdoctoral fellows and a large number of undergraduate students while increasing this institutions capability to do research and train students in materials science.
