Materials and Nanoscience
In the mid-1970's Penn State Chemistry made a strategic decision to move towards the new interdisciplinary areas of materials and biological chemistry. The roots of our materials program emanate from surface studies but now spread to materials synthesis and characterization, solid state chemistry and nanotechnology. Several of the Chemistry faculty are members of the Penn State Materials Research Institute (MRI) and several are members of the NSF funded Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC) Center for Nanoscale Science (CNS).
