Why UW-Milwaukee joined the RM2N
Increase Collaboration
Engineering is a team sport; RM2N helps build stronger, faster, smarter teams
• Strengthen the longstanding MSE program (BS, MS, PhD)
• Enhance ties to regional manufacturers
• Increase promotion of industry / university activities
• Build deeper relationships across UW-System campuses

Materials Science and Engineering
• ABET accredited BS program in Materials Engineering• Comprehensive exposure to metals, polymers, ceramics,
biomaterials, nanomaterials, energy• Material processing and manufacturing
• Foundry, polymer processing, 3D, nanomaterial synthesis• Unique energy storage lab with pilot line for Li-Ion cell fabrication and
testing• Material characterization and testing
• Advanced Analysis Facility • Structures and mechanical testing• Corrosion, material degradation

Product Realization
Started at UWM in 2009 through a partnership between the Peck School of the Arts and the College of Engineering and Applied Science• Fosters creative product solutions
through multidisciplinary teams• Students gain experience
working on commercial projects
• Emphasizes ideation, concept generation, and prototyping over traditional senior design projects
Fostering Entrepreneurship

Department of Energy Industrial Assessment Center
More Info: http://iaclab-pc.ceas.uwm.edu/ or contact Ben Church
DOE funded center with mission to:1. Help manufacturers lower energy use, reduce waste, and improve efficiency2. Train the next generation of engineers capable of identifying, researching and
implementing energy efficiency projects in manufacturing industries
80+ Wisconsin manufacturers audited since 2010, average savings of 15% of energy costs
