An Interdisciplinary Education in Composites at UD

The Education of students for academia, industry, and government is one of UD-CCM's primary objectives. Our students also have the opportunity to interact with visiting students, faculty, and researchers from industry, government agencies, and other universities in the U.S. and abroad. The philosophy underlying graduate and undergraduate research programs at UD-CCM is that development of students into productive, proactive engineers is best accomplished in an environment of discovery, where research is an integral part of education and where students play an integral role in solving real-world problems.

Composites-related educational opportunities for ARL scientists and engineers, efforts to access and involve historically black colleges and universities (HBCU's), and education of undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral students through traditional academic programs, summer internship opportunities, and education through research have been implemented through the UD-CCM's CMR, CMT, ONR, and other programs.
