Vision

The vision of CAMR is to achieve excellence in materials research and education, by combining local resources and expertise, in order to provide solutions to complex technical challenges in material design, enhancement, utilization, and identification.

 

Mission

CAMR will strive to excel in the use of Xray and other supporting techniques for the analysis and characterization of materials, and help in the development of new materials, which are of interest to local industries and researchers. It will also strive to achieve national prominence in targeted research areas that include energy, environment, health, and cultural heritage.

 

Goals and Objectives

  • Foster interdisciplinary research at the forefront of materials science.
  • Bring together motivated faculty and students in a highly collaborative research environment.
  • Educate scientists and engineers at the graduate and undergraduate levels in the broadly defined discipline of materials science.
  • Provide training opportunities for lab supervisors and technicians in different analytical techniques.
  • Engage the community by providing consulting and training services to municipalities, forensic labs, environmental agencies, museums, and the energy sector, among others.
  • Provide unique capabilities that are not usually accessible to the local industries. Petroleum, energy, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, cement and other building materials, are some of the industries that might benefit from such capabilities.
  • Enhance research collaboration efforts of UoS with universities and centers at the national and regional levels.
