The facilities and instrumentation of the Materials Science and Engineering Center are a key asset at UW-Eau Claire, and are a main draw for students, researchers, and industrial partners. However, the faculty and staff of the Materials Science and Biomedical Engineering program have been making headlines, and they continue to impress on local, state and national levels.
Whether they are securing federal grants to support student-faculty collaborative research, accepting teaching awards from the UW System Board of Regents, or mentoring students in advanced undergraduate research, the materials science and biomedical engineering faculty are experts and well-known leaders in these growing academic fields.
One tremendous advantage our program offers over others is that unlike materials science or biomedical engineering programs at larger universities, our courses are taught 100% by our faculty. Teaching assistants, TA’s, are a wonderful asset to undergraduate programs, and can do a great job in supplementing academic offerings at big schools. On this campus, however, we provide the faculty experts themselves to deliver all the lectures, instruction, and research mentoring, a decision making factor that was not lost on recent graduate and Rhodes Scholar Tayo Sanders.
