Nonmetallic Materials Laboratory Improvement

冶金和材料工程部正在改进其实验室，以展示对陶瓷、聚合物和电子材料至关重要的材料基础--这些材料类别正在经历最迅速的变化和进步。这些实验室将供所有工程专业的学生使用，以及与制造密切相关的课程-冶金与材料工程、机械工程、电子工程、工业工程、制造工程技术和化学的学生使用。所要求的设备将促进超导陶瓷、电子器件故障机制和高温聚合物复合材料的实验。这个项目的匹配金额超过了获奖金额。

The Metallurgical and Materials Engineering department is improving its laboratory to demonstrate materials fundamentals important for ceramics, polymers, and electronic materials - the classes of materials which are undergoing the most rapid changes and advances. The laboratories will be used by students from all engineering majors as well as by students in courses closely associated with manufacturing - metallurgical and materials engineering, mechanical engineering , electronic engineering, industrial engineering, manufacturing engineering technology, and chemistry. The equipment requested will facilitate experiments on superconducting ceramics, electronic device failure mechanisms, and high-temperature polymeric composites. This project is being matched by an amount greater than the award.
