2016 ACRI Internal Grant Programs announced

The Accelerating Collaboration in Research Initiative (ACRI) is a program designed to help CoE faculty increase research collaboration and compete for significant external funding. Last year, we funded the following four strategic research initiatives:

  •  Advanced Thermal Technology – PI: Prof. Yue Wu (CBE)
  • Icing Physics & Anti-/ De-icing Technology – PI: Prof. Hui Hu (AE)
  • Materials for Extreme Environments – PI: Prof. Mufit Akinc (MSE)
  • Multiphase Flow Research – PIs: Prof. Shankar Subramaniam (ME) & Prof. Rodney Fox (CBE)

 In addition, eight proposal teams were funded through the large proposal support initiative. For more information about our 2016 programs, please visit our ACRI webpage. The deadline for the First Round of the Strategic Research Thrust Program is October 16, 2015.
