10. Collaboration with Other Centers/Institutes and/or Departments
By virtue of its extensive instrumentation capabilities, CAM is involved in intrauniversity
collaboration with numerous scientists and engineers in the Colleges of
Science and Engineering. Of particular interest, CAM faculty and staff continue to
interact significantly with the Institute for Nanoscale Science, Engineering, and
Technology (INSET), as well as the Center for Green Chemistry, Photonics Center,
Plastics Engineering Dept., the Center for High-Rate Manufacturing and Physics Dept. .
We have also assisted graduate students to complete their M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in
several departments using our instruments at the center.
11. Regional/Local Outreach
Through a grant from the Academy of Applied Sciences (U.S. Army Research and
Engineering apprentice Program), CAM furnishes a tutorial research program for
minority high school students. This past year’s students were Tito Vann from Lowell
Center for Advanced Materials
