Center for UMass / Industry Research on Polymers

Mission Statement: To act as a cross-roads where University research and education meet with Industrial and Government partners in Polymer Science and Engineering at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.

The Center: The oldest National Science Foundation established Industry / University Cooperative Research Center (NSF-I/UCRC), established in 1980, has evolved into a dynamic Center program. Its multi-part structure offers flexibility to participating members in tailoring their research programs. The customized approach allows Sponsors to meet the challenges of cutting-edge science in a fast-paced business world.

CUMIRP's Multi-Part Structure:
  • Part I - Research Consortium (NSF I/UCRC Format) Part I is divided into "Clusters" of related research topics.
  • Part II - One-on-One Sponsored Research
  • Part III - Unrestricted Research Grants
