Program Description

As part of MSOE's REU program, you'll research projects advancing state-of-the-art applications in the following industries:

  • biomedical,
  • aerospace,
  • architectural,
  • manufacturing,
  • composite,
  • biomolecular,
  • and electro-optical.

Your research will be guided by a faculty advisor with expertise in a particular research field. The interdisciplinary nature of this work opens minds and promotes creative solutions to problem solving.

Hands-on access to solid freeform fabrication devices, close partnerships with advisors, industry mentors and other educational institutions, paired with a creative learning environment provides you with a high probability of success in research focused on solving industrial problems through advanced manufacturing technology.

Your research capabilities will increase as you explore research topics through:

  • learning new software,
  • designing and completing experiments,
  • group discussions,
  • building models,
  • field trips,
  • problem solving with advisors and teammates,
  • Rapid Prototyping Consortium meetings,
  • written and oral communication,
  • and library and Internet research.
