Clemson University Advanced Materials Innovations Complex

About this project

AMIC, a seven-story facility, serves as a dynamic hub for undergraduate education in Chemistry, Materials Science and Engineering, and Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. It houses state-of-the-art wet and dry laboratories, imaging facilities, classrooms, lecture halls, offices, conference rooms, and spaces designed for interactive learning.

The facility is structured to encourage innovative research, pushing boundaries to address contemporary challenges. It features cutting-edge research laboratories where new ideas are explored and developed. These spaces are intentionally designed to foster innovation and the pursuit of knowledge crucial for tackling twenty-first-century issues.

In addition to research facilities, AMIC includes innovative teaching laboratories that provide creative environments for students to investigate, analyze, and apply theoretical concepts. These labs are designed to bridge the gap between theory and practice, allowing students to make abstract concepts tangible.

Furthermore, AMIC prioritizes student-centered learning environments that promote constructive dialogue between learners and instructors. These spaces are crafted to facilitate collaborative learning and engagement, nurturing a community of knowledge exchange.

AMIC’s mission is centered on advancing research and education in advanced materials, supporting innovation in fields such as advanced manufacturing, energy, and health, with the goal of cultivating a new generation of engineers and scientists. Through both fundamental and applied research in advanced materials, AMIC aims to drive transformative economic development, enhance South Carolina’s future competitiveness in advanced manufacturing, energy, and health sectors, and improve overall quality of life.
