SYNOPSIS
DMR's Office of Special Programs (OSP) coordinates and supports crosscutting activities in DMR and in conjunction with NSF-wide programs, including enhanced international collaborations in materials research and education. OSP activities are often co-funded with other NSF units, such as the Office of International Science and Engineering and the MPS Office for Multidisciplinary Activities. Examples of OSP activities include:
•International Materials Institutes (IMI)
The IMIs advance fundamental materials research by coordinating international research and education projects. Their long-term goal is the creation of a worldwide network in materials research and the development of a generation of scientists and engineers with international leadership capabilities.
•Opportunities for International Cooperation in Materials Research
DMR supports international collaborative research and education projects in partnership with funding organizations in Europe and the Americas. Collaborative activities in partnership with funding agencies in Asia and in Africa are being developed.
•Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Sites and Research Experiences for Teachers
