“Estimates indicate that to electrify the vehicle fleet by 2050, about six new large copper mines need to come on line each year. The timeline of permitting is not aligned with the temporal acceleration needed,” says Elsa Olivetti, leader of the Decarbonization Mission of MIT’s new Climate Project.

关于我们
DMSE is home to the world’s premier program focused on Materials Science and Engineering – the study of matter and how it is made. Our community members undertake interdisciplinary materials projects that draw on fundamental sciences in pursuit of beneficial engineering solutions. From construction materials to virus-grown nanostructures, we seek to understand the creation, composition, structure, properties, and performance of materials – and to derive new, effective, and sustainable alternatives. Our field welcomes original thinkers who embrace complexity, aspire to drive positive change, and harness the power of ambitious research to shape a better future. Our collaborative community of students, scientists, practitioners, and scholars from across the globe are dedicated to that mission. In our labs and classrooms, current and future leaders in the field expand knowledge through experiments and projects that link diverse scientific disciplines. From novel manufacturing methods to high-capacity batteries, their work has resulted in powerful discoveries and innovations that positively influence virtually every corner of society.

“A lot of blood tests aren’t done because they’re too inconvenient,” says Michael Dubrovsky, SiPhox founder and former member of MIT Materials for Micro and Nano Systems group. “People skip scheduled blood tests, and physicians don’t always prescribe blood tests because they know it’s inconvenient."
