As part of a multi-campus research initiative of the University of Missouri System, Missouri S&T will establish four new research centers and laboratories that build on the university’s strengths in materials science and engineering, civil infrastructure, and electrical power systems.
The Missouri S&T projects are among 19 from the UM System’s four universities selected to receive funding through the system’s strategic investment program for research and creative works. UM System President Mun Choi, Missouri S&T Chancellor Mohammad Dehghani and other university leaders from the campuses in Columbia, Kansas City and St. Louis announced the list of selected programs on Aug. 8.
