Materials Science and Engineering

The Materials Science Department is committing the 2025 comet giving day proceeds to the “MSE Founders Fellowship”.  This fellowship will honor our founders: Profs. Bruce E. Gnade, Moon Kim and Robert M. Wallace, and will be used to support new outstanding MSE graduate students that share and foster the culture of academic excellence and community engagement.  

This fellowship will help Materials Science Engineering continue as a source of research, innovation and technical excellence, bringing the scientific breakthroughs necessary for industry and government initiatives, making us a global leader in educating our students and exceeding our stakeholders’ expectations.  

Since the inception of our department in 2008, we have seen our university double in size while becoming a “Tier One” University. MSE has been key to that success.  The research areas, faculty and culture of our department continues to evolve and adapt to a constantly changing world. The vision of our founders of producing engaged graduates, prepared for life, work, and leadership will never change. Please join us in supporting the “MSE Founders Fellowship” to continue their vision and legacy.
