About the MSRC
Leveraging extensive corporate experience, sustained levels of external
research funding, and globally recognized research and professional activites,
the Microelectronic Systems Research Center nurtures the ongoing development
and enrichment of undergraduate and graduate studies in microelectronic and
photonic systems at West Virginia University.
Background
The Microelectronics Systems Research Center (MSRC) was established
within the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at
West Virginia University
in 1992. The activities of the Center focus on five interrelated
objectives:
- expansion and enrichment of the undergraduate
and gradute programs through
educational initiativesin microelectronic and photonic systems, and
communication/signal processing systems,
- ongoing development and evolution of significant
funded research programs,
