Centers of Excellence
Center for Material
Research (C.M.R)
The Center for Materials Research (CMR) conducts cutting edge
research in well-equipped facilities in areas of crystal growth and
nanotechnology, polymer processing , thin film deposition, nonlinear optics and
laser design, optical spectroscopy and magnetic resonance. CMR faculty members
are energetic researchers dedicated to furthering knowledge in their respective
disciplines. They focus on research problems of fundamental and practical
importance in photonics and spin electronics, and make substantive efforts to
cooperate with other universities, industry, and government laboratories.
Bringing Education and
Science Together (B.E.S.T) Lab
The B.E.S.T. (Bringing Education and Science Together)
Laboratory operates cooperatively between the School of Education and the School
of Science and Technology. Projects involve fundamental and applied research,
integration of technology in education, and innovative curriculum development.
Students and faculty engage in modeling chemistry, atmospheric science, and
science education research with state-of-the-art equipment and software.
NSU Institute for Information Assurance Research (IIAR)
Despite recent economic downturns in the technology arena, there is a growing
demand for well-educated computer professionals in information assurance.
Information assurance (IA) is a set of information operations that protect and
defend information systems by ensuring confidentiality, integrity, availability,
authentication, and non-repudiation. In addition, IA incorporates protection,
detection, and reaction capabilities which can be used to restore systems in the
event of an attack or compromise.
