The purpose of the Materials Working Group is to bring together all research activities at Mississippi State University related to materials research. Since many departments, colleges and institutes are conducting materials research, this group facilitates the transfer of new ideas and permits the maximum utilization of shared resouces. This home page serves the important function of helping interested parties in materials related research activities locate expertise at MSU, via links to both researcher and research group home pages. In addition, a link indicating some of the capital equipments located on-campus to support these research activities is provided. For questions related to this home page please contact the website manager.
