IMG research focuses on micro- and nanosystems for healthcare, energy, security, aerospace, transportation, consumer electronics, and other industries. Efforts include design, fabrication, characterization, and ultimately deployment of micro and nanotechnologies for a wide variety of applications. IMG is playing a leading role in the MIST Center (Multi-functional integrated system technology), an NSF I/UCRC program.

Dr. Henry Sodano Awarded the American Society for Composites 2012 Young Composites Researcher Award.
The Young Composites Researcher Award is given to a member of the
composites community who early in their career has made a significant
impact on the science and technology of composite materials through a
sustained research effort.
The monthly training for BEN 210/214 (E-test and M-test) will be held on Tuesday at 9 AM. This training is required in order to have access to either of these labs. If you have completed this training in the past and still have swipe card access you do not need to attend.
