These technologies
have applications to major industrial clusters such as imaging,
microelectronics, material processing, environmental control,
and pharmaceutical, health care, and cosmetic products.
Education
and Training
CAMP conducts focused materials educational activities, supports
the training of materials research personnel, and interacts with
the materials related components of the academic programs at Clarkson
University.
Funding
Approximately $5,856,000 were received in support of the research
and development operation of CAMP from July 1, 2002 to June 30,
2003. The funds were distributed among five sources as follows:
New
York State CAT Grant
$1,000,000
New

Technology
Transfer
One of CAMP's major goals is to transfer technology developed
by CAMP research to New York State businesses to use in improving
their manufacturing methods and in manufacturing new and improved
products. To this end, CAMP facilitates materials-related research
collaborations with industry and effective dissemination and implementation
of the research results
