On September 17, 2017, it was announced that the State of South Carolina was awarded an NSF EPSCoR RII Track-1 grant, entitled MADE in SC, short for Materials Assembly and Design Excellence in South Carolina. Quoting from the MADE in SC website: ‘The vision of the [MADE in SC] initiative is to discover and establish new and sustainable approaches for the design and assembly of hierarchical materials at multiple relevant length scales that serve South Carolina’s STEM research, education and workforce needs and invigorate economic development.’ Resources from the grant will support recruitment of 17 new faculty across 5 institutions (including one hire for math sciences), postdocs, graduate and undergraduate students, research facilities, and outreach to K-12 schools and the private sector. One of the biggest impacts of this grant will be the leverage it provides for further funding.
Chris Cox is a co-leader of the multiscale Modeling and Computation Core.
Professors Hyesuk Lee and Margaret Wiecek are contributing faculty members for the Stimuli-Responsive Polymeric Materials Thrust.
