By harnessing information and data science tools to advance knowledge discovery, our interdisciplinary team is establishing a new paradigm for materials science research.
We train students from all STEM backgrounds how to reduce the cost and time it takes to discover and commercialize new materials - materials that are critical to global economic security.
We forge critical partnerships with community groups and non-governmental organizations to ensure our research and educational activities have the greatest impact on a broad range of areas such as health, climate change, and energy sustainability.
Our faculty and scholars focus on cutting-edge research and innovative educational strategies to identify and accelerate solutions that address a broad range of societal issues.
The MDI Hub is the focal point for a broad range of engagement and outreach activities, from our industry scholar residence program to our Alchemy Lab, where K-12 students are introduced to materials science.
The UB School of Engineering and Applied Sciences has been recognized as an Exemplar Bronze Award recipient by the ASEE Diversity Recognition Program. The program publicly recognizes engineering colleges that make significant progress in increasing diversity and inclusion.
Materials design and innovation PhD student Behnoosh Sattari Baboukani received a platinum first-place award at 74th Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers (STLE) Annual Meeting and Exhibition’s student poster competition.
Later this week, over 1,300 School of Engineering and Applied Sciences graduates will sit in anticipation, on the cusp of crossing from student life to adulthood, academia to careers, knowledge to application. While they all share the hope and sadness and pride of the moment, each student arrives with their own unique story of how they got there.
