Faculty
The Department of Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) is a growing department and an exciting place for faculty and staff to work on cutting-edge research. Research focus areas include nanoelectronics, photovoltaics, batteries and supercapacitors, atomically precise manufacturing, nanosized coatings and materials for biomedical applications. More than half of our faculty has prior industrial experience and almost all have strong, current industrial collaborations. Some faculty members come from government labs and others directly from academia, and many faculty from other departments are affiliated with MSE.
