Computational Materials Research Nucleus

About Us

The computational materials research nucleus is housed within the Department of Chemical Engineering at Rochester Institute of Technology comprising a group of like-minded researchers who engineer advanced materials using computational approaches.

Together, we tackle hierarchical problems in advanced materials by designing them all the way from the atom to the technological application. We leverage fundamental concepts of chemical engineering towards materials design using data-driven science combined with high performance computing.
